I will likely be selling one from a 62 as well, currently in a 62 Pontiac. Has a cast iron powerglide attached, Im going to see if it runs any day now. Can likely arrange transportation to ON as well. PM me if interested.

You should, 62 is by far the best Darryl plus the cast iron glide is better for snow- weight wise.

Knew 63 was only 327, I guess 62 were the same 327s except for the fuelie BJ? 250, 300, and 340 only?

 62 and 63 fuelies were both rated at 360hp but had different FI units. The fuelies went to 375hp for 64 and 65,

my favorite small block of all time. Always wanted to put one in a 62 or 63 Nova......biggrin....can you say 'sleeper'......smile

 Yes, because the 327 came out in 1962 and the Vette being the performance leader at Chevrolet only got the 327.

 Very interesting - I started at Gorries in March 65 but don't ever remember anyone mentioning this.....no

I know the mechanics that would have been involved including the famed Doug Duncan. By 1965 they had

moved on to big blocks (396 debuted in Jan 65) and their Grand Daddy Gorries' 65 F/X Nova 396 injected.....biggrin

To my knowledge the 327 injected Nova never came back, too bad I would definitely have tried to buy it.
