    Ran into a guy at a recent carshow that bought one off E-Bay to put in his '62 Impala SS convertible. It was a truck engine, paid $1400.00, but after being rebuilt and installed in his car it looked like a factory installation. He said they are out there, so I would start on E-Bay.

    Not of much help but. I was over in IN. a few weeks ago. We went past a bodyshop that had a few hot rod type cars out side. So being the nosie type I stoped and talked with the owner he showed me around the shop he had several 55 56 57 chevys older Mercs more cars than I could mention.In ONE room he had steel shelves. ON those shelves he had at least 12 409s and 348s price SORRY I"M NOT SELLING THEM. He had many intakes 3x2 2x4 4 same thing no sale. I have no idea what he is planing to do with them but he would not even talk about selling them.

    contact Southside Auto in Minneapolis,MN. They deal in 1964 chevy parts and they usually have a couple complete 409s on hand. they know what these engines are worth, but they ARE honest. They ship all over the country too. 612-727-2404. "Showcars" aka DR. 409 is another good source. they are in New Ulm, MN. and on line at DR.409.com

    I have a factory 3 2 manifold i will probably never use. I saw a boat with a 409 for $500 then saw the manifold and bought it I thought about buying the boat for the motor and then putting in a sbc and selling it but I was too late timothale @ yahoo.com

    409

     



    64 vintage..

    425 horse two four barrel carbs with correct intake...Complete...Bolted to the Borg warner it came with new.

    The motor runs now and is in a car, soon to be pulled...Needs to be freshened up, but there is nothing wrong with it to my knowledge
    $2500 engine
    $3000 Engine with trans
