Re: 68 Camaro Engine Swap Question

I forgot to mention that the car has not yet been fully restored and the
327 
will have to be rebuilt anyway.  I am in the process of doing a frame off 
rotissery resto. I'm building this car to enjoy and maybe one day sell it
to 
buy something else.  My understanding is that most people would rather
have 
a BB car than a SB and since this car will be a Date correct BB resto, 
having the numbers matching SB is just insurance that the car is complete.

I doubt that the price will be lower because it has a Date correct BB
unless 
the market gets crazy like it did with Mopar a few years ago.
