Need your help/advice. gearhead ?
I just purchased a '67 283 w/67,000 miles on it out of a Chevelle. I didn't hear it run. It has been out of the car for a number of years. The camshaft that they later put in was a GM 3972178 LT1 solid lifter cam.
Question is? If they only changed the cam and lifters would this motor run well with all its other original parts?
LT1 had 11 to 1 pistons. 283 had 9.25 to 1
I don't know squat about solid lifter cams!

Damn, that's something I didn't want to hear. I'm glad I got to meet him and Rosie and Rick. I'm proud to have had him as a friend, RIP Johnboy
