That is the exact motor that I have in my '74. I got it because that is what was available. Can't really say what I paid for it because I got it with a '73 car and all the conversion parts, and misc other parts. PO knew the engine was rebuilt however thought it was a 2.7 because of the green shroud. I did end up having to reseal a head gasket. Down side is the 6 bolt lower valve covers and 7 bolt chain covers. No matter what I do I cannot seem to get one side to stop leaking oil. Although not a lot, but still annoying as it drips right on the header.

I love the engine in the car, the short stroke really revs up and sounds good. However, I have already purchased a 2.7 to rebuild, chasing HP of course.

I was going to ask $2000 for mine when I am finished with the 2.7 build...(whenever that may be)
