Hello I've heard about this site but never got a chance to check it till now and it looks like I can get some serious knowledge from all you chevelle owners. I just aquired my fathers 67 Chevelle SS which he purchased NEW. I will be needing some help in a range of areas with the chevelle. I lost my father and he did all his own work on the motor which is a 396-375 hp and I reget not paying more attention. I have some knowledge about cars but when it comes to internal motor questions I'm at a lost. Anyway, thank you for letting me post with you and hope you are patient members. I've always said no question is a dumb question. Thanks again, Joe

Welcome Joe. You have definitely come to the right place. Just post your questions in the proper forums and I can guarantee that someone will have an answer.

Welcome!

Welcome!!

Welcome to the site. How about so pictures.

Welcome Joe, congrats on the 67...you're starting with an awesome story!

Hey Joe, Am I jealous. I am a 67 fan too. Welcome

Hello and Welcome Joe....Congrats on the 67. :thumbsup:

Hello and welcome Joe. Is the 375 HP engine, the original? If you can document that it is original to the car, it would be very rare.

Welcome aboard!!

As was said, if that is indeed an ORIGINAL L-78 block, that's a keeper.. only 612 for 67 SS's :yes:

Check and see if it has the EG code and car's serial number on the front passenger side deck pad.

As far I know the block and trans are the original except for the top end of the motor, which has dual quads. Unless he changed it when I was very young, but I remember him always saying it was all orignial. The car has less than 60,000 original miles and has never been in an accident, knock on wood. I will post pictures soon.

No need to guess... just look at the deck pad.. it's either original or it's not. :yes:

Welcome :beers:

Welcome Joe,

Sounds like a fun project. I live in Chicago and can probably help you with some basics. Send me a PM if you would like to chat

Thanks

hey joe welcome to the site, im right over in the homerglen area

Welcome. I grew up not far from you, in Worth. If you really want to know if the engine is original, look for the numbers at the front of the passenger side head, on the block pad (unless it's been decked, then there will be nothing there). Post here, and someone will tell you what you've got.

Welcome to Team Chevelle. Sorry about the loss of your father. If you need help with the car, I'm only a PM away. Jason.
