1957 Chevrolet 283 Complete Engine 3731548 Block Casting Number on 2040-parts.com
Mount Pleasant, Utah, United States
|
This engine has been sitting in the engine bay of an old Willys truck in a barnyard for the last 30 years. The owner didn't know anything about the motor other than he "thought" it was a 283. It turns out it's a 1957 283 with a factory 4-barrel built in Flint. The block casting # is 3731548, and the stamped engine code is F226FC. It's complete, shows no sign of trauma, and looked like it was in running condition when last parked. The dipstick shows very clean oil, about a half a quart low. I've tried to turn it over by hand only, and it does not want to move. I have not tried to force the issue.

Bentley Continental GT Hybrid?
Mon, 08 Jun 2009Bentley Continental GT caught sporting gubbins that looks suspiciously like a Hybrid power train So far, Bentley has opted for Bio-Fuel as a good starting point for going ‘Green’, but if the spy shot you see here is anything to go by, it looks like we could be seeing a Bentley Hybrid before too long. Snapped in Spain, where many car makers do hot weather testing in Europe, this Bentley Continental GT is definitely sporting something major in the mechanical department that doesn’t fit with the stock car. The guy who snapped the car also said it was running very quietly – perhaps indicating it was in electric cruise mode.
