  5. Well, here goes. Reply to your comments. Thanks first to Joe jft69z for encouragement. Helps to have friends in high places. Bought car new as multi purpose family car plus ability to tow trailer. Kept for 50 yrs, so all original components saved if replaced. The engine got tired at 220k in around '84. I wanted to rebuild it, but my local motorhead pals suggested a cheaper fix. The new ZZ1 had just become available. Note that Chevy Tonawanda engine plant is in my back yard. We installed the ZZ1 (was the Corvette 350) and I still have the original but tired 350. Never been apart, and matching numbers for those who care. Thanks for asking, as I have been waiting for years to tell that story. Jerry B
