68 Coronet 500 questions

First what chance out of 100% would this car start it's life with a big block. Number two. The guy that owns it seems to know his stuff thinks it has a 360 in it witch weren't around in 68. Would this beast have a 318 in it to start? Number three. You can't mount a small block onto a big block cross member can you?

Thanks.

Couldn't get a 360 in 68. check the VIN and/or the fender tag. They will tell you what you want to know.

Sorry...missed the last part. Yes, you can swap a big or a small block on the same K frame in a 68 no prob.

Thanks Runner..My brother had one of those and a 69 Super Bee too back in the good old days. I'm new here from A bodies only with a 69 Dart and I'm hoping to get this Coronet too maybe in the spring.

Groovy. Good luck with the acquisition, and don't let this guy snow you

Over 7000 68 Coronet 500's came with a 383.You need the vin numbers off the dash.The 5th digit is for the engine size.

Right, I looked them up. It looks like anything below a G is a small block so next time I have a look at the car I'll check the vin.
