We had the 283 2bbl in about a '62 or '63 Impala. Nothing special, but a competent people movier.
The one prior to that was a 6 and emitted an 'arf arf' noise at the filling station.....
The later wagon my dad bough was a 327 4bbl and THAT got down the road jut fine.....and had one of the 3 speed automatics....Turbo something?
265 not 252? And the 305 was I think the 327 crank in a 283 block.....a Stroker.... My brother had a 350 in his late'50s Corvette. Lots of Thrust. 346? Never heard of it....but that doesn't mean much
Neighbor JUST SOLD a Bicayne WAGON with a 409 w/2x4bbl. REALLY terrific noises and a great cruier. Guy he sold it to? Already on the path to ruin with 20" wheels and who knows WHAT else?
Too much is never enough
