Nice El Camino you have there. Why not post the engine block numbers on here and let the numbers experts decipher them?

From what the previous owner said, it was a rebuilt 65.  >From what I have heard they put a Edlebrock cam kit to bust the HP to 325 or 350.  The numbers on the block is a J serious, which tells me it was a 283.   So I might have bought a good story, but it runs well.   It does have a cam for sure, the performer intake, and 4 barrel.   Wish I know it was really a 327.  some day might have to open the engine up and really see what I have.
 
This car is not a numbers car, but it sure does look nice.   But not super tricked out.

64 El Camino, 327, 325 HP, Muncie 4 speed. Love the rush of the cam and 4 barrel kicking in then shift into second.  I think that is the main reason I purchased a second 64 El Camino.
 
Sold 64 El Camino, 283 when I was in High school.
Sold 71 El Camino SS......friend totaled it.
 
By the way any one know how I can change out the floor shifter from a hurst, that has a 2 bolt, vertical pattern to a Muncie style that is 2 bold horizontal pattern.  I like the S shape shifter I had with my first 64 El Camino.  With the T at the top.
 
Thank you,
Kelly
