-> Actually that was the 283 bored to 4" yielding 301 cid. The 265
-> didn't have enough cylinder wall thickness to bore larger than 292
-> cid.
Note, I DID say 1955 model 265, had thicker block, 56 on was not the
same, now, how do I know this, DID it, pulled a 265 from a wreckd 55
chevy, had er punched out, that sucker in a lil Nova was bad for a lil
thing, reved quick, did this back in '69, I must say, even being a Stang
luver, that them Chevy small blocks are SO easy to work with.
