Now the fun part! The power under the hood is a VERY RARE and complete 63/64 QB code, 425 Horsepower, Dual Quad 4-Barrel, 409 "FOUR-O-NINE" Cubic Inch V8!!! Acquired by the owner who is a well known Mid-West engine builder, it was totally disassembled, inspected, balanced and professionally rebuilt! The bore was perfect and remains factory "Standard" along with factory Crankshaft, Rods and Forged Pistons. For reliability, the camshaft was up-dated with a hydraulic version professionally ground to factory lift/duration. The original 425HP cylinder heads were rebuilt and the final motion is set with Crane Roller Rockers. Yes, the Intake and Dual Carter Carburetors are GENUINE! The "BEST of the BEST" 409 parts included are an equally rare original 64 Air Filter Housing and Valve Covers! Tuned to the Nut's, this combo is a shocking addition of period power! Yes, it has factory POWER STEERING!

Along the same period correct theme, The rest of the drive-train is also impressive! Equipped with a factory aluminum 409 bell housing, balanced flywheel and Ram Clutch. Originally an automatic car, the hump was exactly & correctly duplicated to an original with NOS Trim! The added Borg Warner 4-Speed was completely rebuilt and shifts as easy as slicing butter. After a long exhaustive search, the rear differential pumpkin was replaced with a NEW still in the factory box, 456 POSI-TRACTION Gear/Housing assembly! The end of the story is that this Muscle Car is mechanically tight and right with a period Correct Drag Feel!
