given a free 383

So my cousin's husband gave me a 383 out of an old Newport. The engine was running when pulled but that was so many years ago who knows what it's like now. Not sure what I'm going to do with it though. Too much work and money to get it into the Dart so I'll probably just trade it towards a small block or something. Now I just have to wait for the snow to disappear so I can go up and claim my prize.

I MIGHT get the 727 tranny from the car as well. As for the car I have no idea what happened to it sadly.

The car the engine came from:

Nice gift.  An excellent choice for a stroker to put in the Dart.

The Newport isn't mine, belongs to a cousin and her husband and they are keeping it.

I built a 440 and dropped into my '69 Charger back in '86. I took the matching numbers 383 HP and gave it away. I was an idiot.
