It now has Now has 355,000+ miles on the original 327 cubic inch , fuel injected, 360 horse power block, ( sleeve in number seven cylinder), a five speed transmission with 0.64 overdrive, 4.11:1 posi rear gears, big 62 racing fined break drums, 255x60-15 BFG tires on American, color painted, Mags, 11.5 to 1 compression ratio, Nostalgia 30.30 Comp. cam., 2.02 X 1.64 valves, roller tip rockers, 600 cfm Edelbrock carburetor on an Offenhouser duel-port, 360 degree aluminum intake manifold, Mallory Unilit ign., Hedmen long tube headers. Now putting out close to 400 horse power, same as the 05, LS2 engine. Getting 23.5 miles to the gallon of fuel, in the flat lands, not quite what the C6 gets on mileage.

Between the two, 62-05 Corvettes, there are many firsts, same, and lasts. I call the "owner mix" color, Plum/ Pearl, with Black overspray in the coves and Gold pin stripping that matches the rare early original Gold grill.

The old Black/yellow, 1960’s California license plates, were brought back to the public this year. (2015) “FREDM C1” & "FREDM C6", stands for “FREEDOM”, the C1 & C6 is the Corvette Generations. ( 7 1/2 spaces)
