1965 Chevrolet 283 Truck Motor on 2040-parts.com
Puyallup, Washington, United States
1965 Chevrolet 283 Truck Engine. This motor needs Rings, it was a runner that I pulled from our S-10 . It had no knocks, just started to get some blow by, right after I installed it. Notice the marks on rear of crankshaft, this is the billet crank that came in trucks , strong motor. The heads are both stock Power Pack heads. This motor will fit anything that takes a small block Chevrolet. Ideal motor for a late 1950's - late 1960's application. it has only one script valve cover, both heads are un drilled on the ends so it has the period correct look to it. This motor comes with all lifters, pushrods, rocker arms, Head bolts, has a Comp Cam in it, gave it a nice idle & still had decent low end power. The Cam is fine and could be re-used. It still held good oil pressure, 35-50 lbs. cold, had no rod or Piston noise. Motor had sat in a garage for many years when I got it, so the stationary position of the rings for so long . is known to cause premature Ring collapse some times.. . Another ebayer ask about the Head Bolts? The reason the bolts are out is, I used this motor in our S-10. I had a set of Aluminum Heads, I used those for obvious reasons. These Power Pack Heads are the same set of Heads that came with this motor , complete and stock 4 Barrel carb. Cylinders from the piston up still look good enough for a stone hone, tops of the pistons all look fine. No disappointments, motor and heads are as described. |
