For Sale
1978 Chevrolet Corvette, 25th Anniversary
Exterior- Corvette Yellow, Interior- Black
Rebuilt 350 motor, unknown KM's
Fella at Weir built the engine and Robin Sipe did the heads.
Currently has cast flat top pistons, and 76cc heads. Heads are from a 400 small block Chevy, 1.94 intakes, 1.5 exhaust. About 8.7:1 compression ratio. Steel shim head gaskets, .020” thick.
Crane cam, not sure what the specs are. About 225 degrees duration @ .050” lift intake and exhaust. 1500-5500 rpm range.
Blower is a B&M 162 unit, the “middle” size, which was fairly rare.
B&M Superjection analogue fuel injection unit.
Stock 1978 350 bottom end, rebuilt to stock specs.
Standard HEI ignition, with limited total mechanical advance curve.
4 speed manual transmission- second gear synchros need to be replaced.
Rally Rims with low KM BFGoodrich tires
T-Top
This is/was my project car however family and time are at a premium these days so I am looking for a good home for this car to be completed and enjoyed. I used to autocross when Robin Sipe first started at the FSJ airport and I thought this might be a good place to start advertising and find someone interested in this type of car to either race and/or have as a summer cruiser. The car is a good solid car but needs the detail work completed; like the fuel injection system needs to be tuned before the car can be driven. If someone is interested in this car please give me, Brian Maddigan, a call at 250-262-1242 and I can send some pictures or arrange to look at the car.
