I got a 67 Parisienne Factory 283 power glide car I'd like to
put a bigger motot in should I go with a 350 Chevy and keep
it chevy powered or do the work and put a Pontiac 400 in it
not really sure I'd keep the factory motor and trans for done the road
if I want to go back to stock just wondering what you guys think
I thought it might be alright to have a Canadian car with Pontiac power
chev 350 a lot cheaper
......as mentioned go with the Chev 350, everything will fit and the car will run great,
by Pontiac 400 I assume you're talking the American Pontiac, that is not original to a
67 Parisienne and would be a headache to install........stick with Chevy parts......
......big block, 4 speed, bench seat, it doesn't get much better
happy motoring
Buy a rusty Chev/GMC truck cheap with a decent 350/5.7L motor & transmission...sell or scrap the rest. - many end up with a free powertrain
1987 is first year for FI...1986 and older trucks, is carburetor.
1985 or 86 may be the start of the 4 speed 700R4...a few years later, 6 bands went to a more robust 10 band auto transmission.

65Camino is right, you can get a running one ton with a 454 for $1,000 or less usually.
