JimD Posted June 19, 2005 Report Share Posted June 19, 2005 I'll ask here because of the wealth of knowledge and experience. We have a non-running SBC and would like to know the original displacement. Two numbers are available; on the left rear, 460776 is cast into the block. On the right front near the water pump mounting these numbers are stamped into the block; TO707CEJ, 180334888. Help or guidance is appreciated. Jim Drive your car. Use your cell phone. CHOOSE ONE !

navion Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 When I saw this topic, I started to think about how many different displacements that these SBC engines were sold from the factory in cars or trucks. No after market like 383 or such. I came up with the following: 265, 283, 327, 350, 302, 307, 400, 262 (Chevy Monza) To go from 262 to 400 using the same basic block & head design is a tribute to the sliderule crowd that designed it! GM does market a 383 SBC as a crate engine. Is this a complete SBC displacement list, or did I miss any? Britt Britt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonA Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 I think Oldsmobile had perhaps the largest spread of engine displacements using the same basic small block design. 260, 307, 350, 403. I've had two 307s before, and a 403 punched out to 408 (.030 over). Those cylinder walls were paper-dadgum-thin on that 403 after the cylinder cleanup. Comparatively, a 260 and 307 engine has a LOT of meat in the block...same bore spacing but much smaller bores. Jason(2001 STS, White Diamond) "When you turn your car on...does it return the favor?"

Scotty Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 I think my friend had this V8 engine in a Caprice, I had a hard time stopping an off closed throttle bog (felt like an accelerator pump problem)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottshoe Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I had one of those "special" 267's in my Buick regal back in the day, the only good thing about it was that I was able to re-use the stock motor mounts when I put in the 406 stoker motor I built for it! What a difference, from about 16.80 in the 1/4 mile to eventually 12.80's with street slicks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't think a stock smogger 267 would be able to break into the TEENS in the 1/4! Jason(2001 STS, White Diamond) "When you turn your car on...does it return the favor?"
