I have a Built Chevy 454 and was thinking about putting it in the 62. Does anyone else have big blocks in their cars? Somebody said i shouldnt do it. What do you guys think? Any pics would be nice :biggrin:

I don't know. I kinda don't like a block in early sixties Impalas, that wasn't offered that year (unless it's a newer fuel injected block).

I say, look for a 409 :biggrin:
I already have the 454 fully chromed :biggrin: but still thinking.
:cool: i like big blocks im gonna put a 427 in my 62
in a lowrider, its just a waste of time, but if you allready got the engine all done up I'd say go for it. Its different.




FACTORY 427c.i. 4-speed, 4:11 posi.

this was my car 25 yrs. ago

if your not gonna hopp it, then i say go for it !!

:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

weight
a homie i know pulled his 348 tri-power and swapped for a 350 because he liked riding all the time and got tired of using a boat anchor as an engine. :biggrin:


but, now i see this topic is about 60's impalas and he has a 58 rag. ;)
