Had a call from a fellow in VA asking about a '67 Firebird that he just got out of CT.

He wasn't expecting anything out of the ordinary because it was actually part of a trade deal. However, as he started checking it out, he discovered some strange things.

Most strange is the engine... which he doubts is original... but who knows?! It is coded (numbers on right side) as: "227870XYH."

I verified the "YH" as a '66 421, which is what someone else told him. But this other persom (who restores Firebirds) told him the "X" was for a NASCAR engine of which something like 150 were made. I wonder how one would be able to verify this.

The engine also has "62" heads (also indicating 1966) plus tri-power. The trans ia an M-22 4-speed.

The car VIN is: 223377U148403

He wants to put a 400 and "regular" transmission in the car and sell the engine/trans. I suggested he research it further and not possibly break up a "package" that may have some racing history behind it.

If anyone has any suggestions as to what he has here, please let us know. if you want to contact him directly, he is Tim Boone and his number is 540-250-5204.
