It a weird build. I bought a $1500 ‘67 open road camper. When I showed up to buy it, it had been vandalized, but the box full of receipts included a $10k 468 motor build. It turned out to be super low mileage build that just sat. I pulled oil pan, intake, and valve covers. Forged crank, H-beam rods, forged pistons (part # depending on actual chamber size is 9.7 to 10.1’ish), Edelbrock RPM intake & cam, good oval port heads and so many other unexpected parts. I refitted bearings, oil pump, timing chain etc and added the Holley Sniper EFI. It’s a beast, for an ole truck 🤣
