Inliners International Forums General Discussion Engines 250 into a '63 Nova

If you do not have Power steering on the car,You do not need to swap the oil pans.As for The Zbar ball. NOT all 250s where chevyII Blocks.Look at your oil pan rail and see If it has The Boss on the block like your 194 does. If it does Not Get with me on that.
Back to the Oil pan if you take a look at my web site You will see where The small Mod Needs to be made to the Oil Pan.

If You try and swap The Oil Pan Off Your 194 You will also NEED to DRILL your Block for The DIP STICK Other WISE YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE to check Your oil level!!
