G'day fellas does anyone know a good engineer that could pass the ute when it's finished. I dont think a normal inspection station can pass it as the chassis is going to be cut and shut. Also could anyone tell me the differences between the 307, 327, 350 blocks. I always thought that the blocks were the same but not real positive on that.

wWhat area are you in? I think the street machine magazine site has a list of accredited engineers somewhere in it's realm. EDIT: Here's a link: http://carpoint.ninemsn....internallink.asp?id=6659Cheers, Mick _______________________ Edited by user Tuesday, 24 January 2006 8:41:00 PM(UTC)

If I recall correctly there where some early 327 blocks that where actually Small journal. (dont Quote me on that) The same as the Rare Chev 302s - Z28s. Thou few and far between know days I would think. |

327 and 350 blocks are the same except for the pre 1968 small journal 327 blocks - both the 327 and 350 have a 4" bore. 307's are all large journal, and are a different block to the others. They have a 3 7/8" bore. You can also make a 307 using a post 196 |

I want to put duels under the back so I reckon they will pick it. But it will be done properly, the chassis just has to be narrowed and sleeved where the spring hangers bolt on. Not a real big job but would like to get it complianced for peace of mind if |

Expect to pay at least $800 for an engineers report these days. That's Vic anyway. I know in QLD you have Blue mod plates, and they are not as expensive, but I don't know if chassis mods are included at that level.
