Need 65 Big Block Measurements

65AFX · Jan 28, 2018

Need measurement of a 65 b-body with a big block.
A) Distance between k-member and bottom of block at the front oil pan rail.
B) Need the distance from the oil pan rail to the distributor (valley area) Base at the top of the block. Need both, a "B" and a "RB".

Thanks,
I have that info, but it doesn't show the height of the block from pan rail to valley pan.

Someone must have a 64 Max Wedge that they can measure the k-member to pan rail.

I have a 65 satellite with a 383. The only place I could get a good measurement was on the passenger side front on the oil pan flange to the k-member. From the top of that flange to the k-member is 2.630”. That’s the best place I could get a solid measurement from because I can’t ft my head down there. Subtract the flange thickness from my measurement and that should be pretty close. For the valley I ran a straight edge from back to front across the valley and it measured 15 11/16” to the k-member. I hope that’s what your after.

Thanks,
That oil pan to K-member measurement will help. As for the other measurement: I need the vertical measurement from bottom of block to valley area. But with the motor in the car that's a hard one to get. Really need someone with a block outside the car.
