They are all sort of gray blue, 4 rows in the patern, regardless of the colour of the interior. Looks pretty awful with red or black interior, but looks fine on my blue 58.

'59 block, '64 intake, heads unknown. So, no "classic matching numbers" value in your engine. Look for a matching numbers block and heads, buy them and put them in a bag. Put in a GM 350 or 383...

Luv the first gear in my 700R4, works great with the 383 and 3.55 gears. But, If I did it again, I'd go with the 200R because it fits. Even with the bowtie kit and crossmember, a 700R4 is a long...

I did a complete kit from vette brakes on my 75 about 7 or 8 years ago. I think is was called a street/slalom kit back then. What a difference! The car handles like a late c4
