Wow, $38K with 6 weeks to go in the auction!

Back to the 77Z, I always hated that era when GM painted the Chevy engines blue. I ordered a new 78 Chevy pickup with a 350 V8 and as soon as the 1 year warranty was up, I pulled the engine over a weekend and painted it the 'proper' Chevy orange. Shortly thereafter I pulled the column shifted 3 speed manual and installed a Muncie 4 speed. I was a lot more ambitious in those days....

You probably picked up about 10 HP just with the color change.
