New to the forum but been building my 62 Impala 2 dr HT for 4 years now. Doing a complete frame off, ground up, you name it I've changed it kind of restoration. Car was originally inline 6 with powerglide but when I got it it had a 350 SB and turbo 350 transmission. Since replaced with a Borg Warner Super T-10 and a rebuilt 350. But just picked up a freshened up 348 that has been painted and decaled as a 409. As I am building an SS tribute car I am going for the 'looks' not the peformance, so who cares if it's not a real 409. Although it is out of a 65 truck which apparently is the only year that they reduced the webbing to allow a 409 crank to drop in. A couple more upgrades and shizzam I will have a 409 after all, if it ever comes to that. I have a website where I am documenting my progress on the Impala as well as some work I did on my 66 Chevelle SS 396. Only been into the hobby for 5 years now but enjoying the building and the cruised nites and everything else about the hobby, especially the people I have met. If you get a chance, stop by my website at www.razecarz.com and sign my guest book. Thanks.
