'64 409, a legend too! - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

ZR-1 Franz · 05-29-2008

Hello from Switzerland,

Chevy Pickups and Blazers for every days hard work, but Corvettes and other
fast Chevys for pleasure. I think I need some help, may be somebody of you
can help me. Some years ago the engine of our '64 Impala SS 409 was blown.
The engine couldn't be fixed and no other 409 could be found. So a smaller
Chevy V8 was installed. We own the car since 41 years and it is still in good
condition. But now I want to restore it and for this reason I am looking for
a 409, especially for a '64 or '63 L80 (409 4bbl 425 hp engine). These would
be my favorites, any other 409 would be good to, but no truck 409s.
I would be very happy, if somebody of you could give me some good advice.
I know this is no ZR-1 related problem, but in the Sixties this car was a legend
too.
Thank you very much for your interest and have a good time.
