Default Have been offered an original 69 L78 motor....

If you missed my last post, it was regarding doing up an L34 engine for my 69 Chevelle.

Well, thanks to the wonders of the internet, I am in discussions for a possible trade for my 454 vs. a 1969 L78.

Here is what I know so far

Block casting: 395527
Block Date: D 2 9
Deck: T0407JH
840 heads (C 27 9 & C 26 9)
163 intake

*original bore, forged slugs, dimpled rods, forged crank

had new bearings and rings installed in 1990 and has been driven sparingly since.

Any thoughts? Any questions you think I ned to ask?

Man, just when I though I was going L34 / M20 it may look like L78/M22....the horror!
