I'm flying into the Bay Area Friday to pick up a 67 that Mike (who was at your meeting) helped me check out! I'm actually going to meet Mike for the first time face to face at TGIF Friday's in San Mateo at Hillsdale on El Camino at 6-6:30 Friday evening to buy him a few beers! Maybe I'll get to see his 68 vert in progress... But I'll be picking up the car Saturday morning and trailering it back to Seattle, so I won't be home for very long this time. I'm from Burlingame, but now live in the Seattle Area. Sounds like you guys had a blast! Next time I'm down, maybe I'll get in touch with mike and we'll see if we can give you guy's an excuse to do it all again! With out the carb sticking on any of the cars! Happy Bird Hunting! - Brett in Seattle!

(back) Subject: 400 engine differences... From: "Brett Luikkonen" <brett@cisdirect.com> Date: Wed, 7 Feb 2001 06:40:24 -0600 What are the differences between the 400 offered in the 68 Firebird and my 400 engine (not going for matching #s, customizing.) which is a 400 2bbl = out of a 1972 Bonneville? I'm getting ready to do some engine stuff, and I'd like to be sure of the differences before I start. Thanks. I'm not sure about the technical differences, but I'd stay with anything Before 70 or 71 at the latest. The HP went down considerably after 1970/1971. You would be better off with an earlier motor, and have to do and spend = less to get more out of it. I'm not saying that there is anything wrong with going that way, just in my opinion, I look at the HP and overall ratings of the motors and go from there. More stock HP the less money and work I have to do to it! I have a... a... A 72' Camaro.. (OK I Said it!$500 and all original, you would have done the same thing!) Anyway the HP rating is only 265 HP where in 71 it was well over 300 HP! They did change the way they rated the engines for 72 on but still... I like my big HP numbers! Just my two cents worth, Brett!

I'll be looking for the Pontiac stuff! Subject: Re: Head case! From: <JGeigel@aol.com> Subject: Re: Head case! From: "Bob Cisneros" <Bob.Cisneros@ebay.sun.com> The 326 heads have a uniquely small combustion chamber, 60cc (casting #140)for the 2 bbl engine, and 50cc (casting #141) for the 4bbl (HO). If you replace your current heads with those from any of the later engine family, you will end up with horribly low compression. _____________________________________________________________________ Brett, Take the advice of others on the list. They are the mechanical gurus. However, I do have a set of 1968 #16 castings available for $100 if you want them. The valves are bad. The heads were acid dipped about 10 years ago, so they are very clean. Let me know if you want them otherwise they will be = at Puyallup this weekend. Joe Geigel

Yes, the 7H1 heads are '72 350 heads, and should be approx 80 cc. And yes they will bolt up fine to a Pontiac 350, 400, or 455. For that matter they'll bolt up fine to a 326, 389, 421, & 428 too. If you really do have a 400 with pretty much stock specs, the 80 cc heads will give you between 9.25 and 9.5 to 1 compression, which is about ideal for street use.

From: "michael Andreason" <mandreas@mediaone.net> Date: Tue, 6 Feb 2001 19:49:10 -0500 I recently purchased a 67 firebird which has been worked on by several previous owners. The block code is YW which as far as I can tell is a 68 or 69 400 block. The heads however have a code of 7H1 on them which according to my Year One catalog are 350 heads. Does anyone have any insight as to whether or not this could be true and if so what approximate compression will I get from this. The engine runs strong and seems much more powerful than my Nova which has a 350 with approximate 275hp. ***********************************************

Aside from Steve Lothridge's excellent response, I'll add that internally, 400 blocks are more or less the same from year to year, with some minor variation. The difference between a 1968 and a 1972 engine would be cam profile and compression. Pontiac changed compression from year to year or even within a model year by changing the combustion chamber size. This explains the dizzying array of head casting numbers. In 1968 a factory high performance 400 would have 72cc chambers. The 1972 head was typically 98cc. That 80cc head you have is a good compromise between the two extremes. I'd stay with that as a foundation for your present engine. Two things you need to do. One is verify the casting date and block number codes found on the distributor pad at the back of the engine. This would verify the year and displacement. The other thing is try to find out what profile cam was installed in the car. If it was the stock 1972 cam, you can benefit from a more aggressive cam profile to increase power across the usable RPM range. -BoB San Jose, CA 1968 Convertible bob.cisneros@Sun.COM

Another minor error on the part of the seller is the group number. 2.897 is the standard lever, while 3.887 is the cruise control lever group. There are 4 days left in the auction, so I'd suggest that whomever was interested in this part call their local dealer to see if it's still available, and what the cost would be. This would help you determine how high to let you bidding go. Also, AMES or Performance Years may have this item as well. -BoB San Jose, CA 1968 Convertible bob.cisneros@Sun.COM
