Engine
400 engine with new pistons. Approximately 3,000 miles on engine. I bought this engine and a rebuilt 4-speed from a friend who had it in a 1965 GTO and wanted to put the original 389 engine back in the GTO. These are the new items I added to the motor after I bought it: motor mounts; Edelbrock aluminum intake; Holley Street Warrior 600 CFM electric choke carburetor; HEI distributor and wires and spark plugs; water pump; fuel pump; short Hedman headers with collectors; no exhaust system - that will be up to the new owner to install; new chrome alternator; chrome 134 AC compressor and bracket; battery and cables; clutch and presser plate; Hurst transmission linkage; driveline yoke and U-joints; aluminum radiator.
This car will need a front end alignment and exhaust system before driving it. The car has only been driven up the street, so it might need a few adjustments; has highway gears in it now. You might want to change gears to your driving preference. As you can see, most everything on the car is new.
