1966 Chevrolet Chevelle SUPER SPORT ZZ454 BIG BLOCK
We Have a 1966 Chevelle Super Sport for sale. It's a fake/pieced together clone. It's been in the family for about 15 years. The odometer shows 26,000 miles on it but who really knows what it is. The body is very straight, doors close good (has a slightly sticky door handle on the drivers side) and overall is in really good shape for its age. It was painted before we bought it and the interior appears to be all original except the carpet, which is newer. The 396 that came with the car was not the original (and not date correct) and was very tired. We opted to buy a GM crate engine instead of rebuilding the old worn out motor. The ZZ 454 engine is a dream motor for this car. It was a factory 469 HP engine but we added a Holley 850 and a GM electronic distributor along with Hooker headers. It's somewhere between 470 and 490 HP. We also opted to junk the old fan belt system and install a GM serpentine assembly. We were always trying to make sure nothing's going to fly off or break down when you're out having fun. The serpentine system is not cheap but is the only way to go! The motor has 512 ft.lbs. of torque and is easy to drive all day, yet if you put your foot down, it will pin you to your seat with authority. BTW, the 450 HP sticker on the air cleaner is about 30 HP. short. It's mated with either an M-20 or an M-21 4-speed Muncie. I doubt it's an M-22 and haven't had the chance to actually look at it but it does have that "Whine" that is familiar with the Muncies. We installed a Center Force 11" clutch and pressure plate when we dropped the new ZZ454 in it too. It also came with a 411 rear end but we switched it out to a 12 bolt 373 which makes it much more road friendly.
This isn't a show car but it is one of the most unmolested 66's I ever seen that's a daily driver. It's in great shape for its age and it's dependable enough to go just about anywhere. It has power disk brakes, power steering, runs on pump premium and is a blast to drive! It has a nice sound to it, yet not radical. This engine has some of the best components that would cost thousands more if you were upgrading the original motor. All forged bottom end, i.e. forged crank, forged rods, forged aluminum pistons, roller cam, big aluminum heads, etc. A very easy engine to upgrade if you wanted, yet powerful enough to put a smile on even the most frumpiest of passengers :-) And, it really isn't that bad on gas mileage if you are just cruising!
