Guest 51Special Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 Hi guys;The technical advice shared on this board is Priceless.I have 51 Special with about 100K miles on a 263 which I have been quoted about $3000 to rebuild. I have the opportunity to buy a rebuilt and refreshed (paint etc)263 for about half that but it is from a 1950. Will it bolt right up or will I face challenges (not that I would be doing the work, that's a little beyond my expertice!)Thanks in advanceAlso, does anyone know the curb weight of my 51 Special 4 door? I got a set of four wheel dollies for Father's day but they are 1000 lb each capacityThanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron65 Posted June 23, 2008 Share Posted June 23, 2008 I don't think there were any differences in the two...only possible problem is if one was from a stick and the other from a Dynaflow...I don't believe the Dynaflow crank had a boss for the pilot bushing, but I'm going on memory here...Also, your Special is pushing 4000 lbs. if not exceeding it with fluids in it.
