well it is not a 225 like I thought.

Here I thought I had a 225 odd fire. I went by the cast numbers in the tech section. the block number above the bell housing is 1254083. Best I can tell it is a 77 231 odd fire. It has the odd fire HEI set up. The head casting is 1249175 with a little 4 at the end. from what I could find they have the stamped rockers not the cast numbers on them. The numbers seem to come back to a 75 or 76 odd fire heads. Does this seem right to you guys. Is it a decent set up? Or is the 225 the way to go. Thanks for your help.

 

'75 saw the switch to the stamped rockers. That's normal. I'd stick with your engine.

 

Hey it did solve my question about the valve cover gaskets . They should be for a 77 231. Any one know the horse power for these engines?
