By the emblems it appears that at it may have originally been a fuelie but now is carburetored as you can see by the air filter. Also I want to note that the 283 is not numbers matching. Available by phone at 707-332-8331. Thanks, DonnOn Mar-20-14 at 09:34:40 PDT, seller added the following information: More Updates: The engine is a 283ci from a 1958 Corvette, rebuilt in the late 80's and driven no more than 10-15,000 miles since. Has hardened seats for unleaded fuel. You will notice oil on the bottom of the mufflers. That was from leaking valve cover gaskets that have recently been replaced.
