Hello Roger

Thank for taking you time to read this email and hopefully answer my question. I have a 67 camaro with a 350 small block, i just bought a 68 chevelle with a 427 big block wich i want to sell, but my questions is....

What do i have to do to get my 427 fit on my 67 camaro?


Thank you,

Octavio G.

Answer
Octavio ;
 HI  - Well you will have to get a new rad. for the big block - than ex.system or headers. it should fit w/o much trouble , you might end up cutting some of the inner fender walls for extra room or remove them all together,
It is not that hard but some time is involved. if you have all of the tools and equp. and a lift , it should be ok. if done in a drive way it will take some extra work.
