I'm going to be building the engine in my '74 super. I can't use the motor already in it because I would love to keep driving it and have a possible spare in case things get a little... explody.

Let me know what y'all got

I am trying to sell a complete 1600dp with low compression and oil leaks! Ran when pulled by some miracle. Only problem for you is that its in Detroit, but i suspect something can be done about that.

In reply to HippieWagon:

what could be the cause of the low compression? Very interested anyways because it would be getting a full rebuild no matter what.

Based on oil consumption my guess is bad rings...either way you'll find out if you dig into it.

Its also got a two barrel progressive carb.
