1966 425 ultra high compression toronado rocket engine
I have acquired a 1966 425 ultra high compression engine from a Toronado. It is complete and all original. It still has the original front wheel drive transmission attached . I am needing to know if it will bolt up to a rear wheel drive 350 or 400 transmission . I know it has "B" HEADS. I will get the numbers and photos from it when i get it home. I purchased this engine to sell. Also I need to know the value. It appears to the same engine as found in this wiki pedia photo.
Thanks
The flexplate is different on a 425, so there is some dicking around with torque converter and flexplate pairing, but the th400 was put behind the 425 on many big cars in at least 1967. That is the best engine of 1966 and will hurt a th350 badly, so don't do that. The engine in the picture is worth 30 grand because it comes with a car. I am assuming you found a core engine, and its value will depend on how close it is to the buyer, whether or not someone needs a lot of parts from it or the whole thing, if it's locked up, if it's rusty, if it's in the middle of a greaseball, etc. I'm sure you could get a few hundred for it, maybe more.
Thank you, Koda
I have a 400 to use with it.
This engine is complete, in original condition, been kept inside a garage, cranks over, just a little dusty
