Big block question

Post by aerodynamic » Thu Oct 26, 2006 7:24 am

Hey all, quick question. What (if any) big blocks were available in the 4-door 71-74 b-bodies? Incidentally, my first car was a 73 4-door Satellite with a 318. It was baby blue. I was in high school at the time and tried to macho up the car as best I could....slotted wheels, glasspack, stripes, sport mirrors,that kind of thing. If nothing else, it was sure the only one like it around, lol. But, ya know, there's days when I miss the old blue bomber.

If you can find a police car- they had some that were equipped with the 440. Suregrips could be ordered, although probably not "standard on any of the models, but the police package.
4th generation B bodys- there is no substitute.
