Need help with a motor

jasmine · #1 07-02-2009, 08:45 PM

Hello all, I am a newbie here and I am looking for some help. After my husband fell sick we decided to start to sell off some of our collector cars and parts we have been collection for over 35 years. I came accross a motor in the garage the I believe is a 427 Alum motor with YENKO stamped on it. I have a picture of the motor but wanted to get more info on it. I have been told there as only 5 of these ever made. if there is any one out there that can help me that would be fantastic. please email me and i can send you the picture of it. many thanks

Hello Jasmine...

Very sorry to hear of your husband's illness but welcome to the site!.
I didn't see an email in your profile but there's lots of great members here who would be happy to help you...some of us right here in Ontario too!.
I can't seem to get any pics to work but there was two styles of Yenko block castings and many more than 5 were made..
Does yours have the letters Y-E-N-K-O cast into it alone or perhaps have a crest shape casting w/ the Yenko name in it?.

~ Pete
