Charlie69 Posted January 23, 2015 Report Share Posted January 23, 2015 Yes Z chopper and Wayno are correct mine is a 1966 520. I like how yours is coming together. If I live long enough to wear out my L20B then the next swap will be a VQ V6, The VQ40DE and the automatic transmission to match. Quote Link to comment
