Thanks, that's what I was thinking but there isn't a whole lot of information on these cars. (At least not any that I could find.)

According to this rebuilder, $1,649.95 for a long block (long block means the cylinder head is included in the build).

I did this in about 30 seconds and you can do the same thing. Just enter "Chevy 216 motor rebuilt" into Google or any other search engine.

That stinks though. I'm going to have to pay for the rebuilt motor and the core charge because the original engine is long gone.I have a 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster and a 1978 Chevrolet Camaro, I had a 1985 Chevrolet Corvette. Im 18.

I figured if I'm going to rebuild it I might as well do it the right way. All the way back to original. I don't mind putting aftermarket parts on it as long as they look the same.I have a 1948 Chevrolet Stylemaster and a 1978 Chevrolet Camaro, I had a 1985 Chevrolet Corvette. Im 18.

I want you all to check this out. Is this a good deal? I can't buy it because it's too far away, and I'm not sure if it will work in my car. Will a Chevy 216 from a 1948 Chevy truck work in my 1948 Chevy Stylemaster? Is it the same motor that was in the 48 Stylemaster? (Same size, power, etc.)
