Looking at this 1970 chevelle SS clone, 454 engine. Is this a good deal at $17k?

Thanks

You are going to leave a trail of fluids and parts.

Say i swapped it to a 12 bolt?
>>

Take the $2k for that, another $2k for the trans swap, and another $2k for the disc break conversion, and then buy a real one. Or save your money and don't buy a clone.

Thanks buddy, appreciate the advice

>2k trans swap
A T56 is more than 2k.

I mean, I guess you can use a shit trans (everything else).
>>
why would you pay 17k for that junk of shit

you can get a base chevelle for 5k, a 454 for $200 and some cheesy fake badges and stickers for another 1k

with 12k left over you could LS swap a Chevelle

You obviously know nothing of which you speak

I'd go with a T400 or 4L80 which would be plenty strong and cost about $2k.
>>
>>14191781
What the fuck is wrong with you?

>454 for $200

>>14190966
Yeah its a good deal as long as it isnt full of bondo.

That is in absolute shit condition

That engine and transmission match up is a problem. He should have went with a turbo400, but he must cheaped out and kept the small block tranny.

So, do you have disposable cash and no taste, or are you just pants on head retarded?

Buy a Nova, friend. We got mine for cheap and had to put a motor in it. We're gonna be running mid 12s with about 13K invested
>>
17K is a boomer price tag
i'd spend 10K MAX
the Th350 will handle the power, the 10 bolt wont.
>>
>>14192653
the Th350 can hold that power.
i know a guy who has a Nova drag car that competes with a th350.
8,200rpm 620 horsepower 396 and it hasn't broken.
