No love for these beauties. He prolly would have done better ending the auction on a weekend night tho. Very nice saw, well bought

I’m seeing the phrase “out of box” used on several evilbay descriptions.

Is that some sort of back door disclaimer if it’s a pile of chit?

You can’t make that sheet up. Hahahaha

Rest of the ad read "has a good running 305 that is no longer made. Would be good for a restoration"

On the fence posts.

Should say “pre-anchored”

I have actually 'recycled' a bit of chain link fencing. A couple of smacks with a sledge hammer usually breaks the concrete cleanly off the posts, and the rest goes together like tinker-toys. Easy to get parts. Unless the fence fabric is bent up (or full of trees, like that one appears to be!).

You win the fence race but does that Caddy have a 305? Cuz they don't make that anymore.

It’s hard to judge which was the all time looser small block Chebby, the 305 or 307. [emoji2960]

Maybe the 305 since it seemed to be around longer, so it let more people down.

You guys forgot the 262 and the 267. Good small blocks to forget!

A 307 is a 327 crank put into a 283 block. What you get is a poor bore-to-stroke ratio and relatively small displacement. You end up with the displacement of a smaller engine with the rev limits of a larger motor.

A better combination is the 283 crank in a 327 block. That combination gets you a 302, as found in 67-69 Camaros. There, you get the rev capabilites of the smaller motor with more displacement.

Long winded, eh?
gfy


PS- It's not a bad motor... it gets bashed because there are better SBC variants that offer more performance for less money.

My friends dad race a 307 back in the 70s in a dirt track car just to show everyone how good of a driver he was.

I'd definitely take one over a timing chain in the oil pan 305.

Late ‘50s early ‘60s, a 283 was bored an eighth for 301. Best SB ever.

Then GM built 302’s. [emoji106]

I need a drill press with a ring and pinion.
