Hi all,
I have the opportunity to purchase a 307 Chev, supposedly built by Bob Jane, (or for Bob Jane). Does anyone know anything about them, specifications, things to look for, numbers etc? Currently in excellent running condition. I haven't seen it yet but have been told it has a 650 Holley & original ram horn exhaust headers, backed up by a turbo 350 auto. What would this engine and tranny be worth, ball park figures, Bob Jane built or not. Thanks for any advice.

Is it a HK-HT 307 or something out of the converted to RHD cars Southern Motors used to sell in the late 60's?

Send me the car's details and the engine number and we'll know if it isn't original to the car.

No. But Southern Motors did some weird and wonderful stuff so I guess some dealer modded 307's is not unusual.
