Re: [Amc-list] Aluminum V8 Hemmings Classic Car

[Greg Taylor <amundaza@xxxxxxxxx>]

That's the aluminum 327 V8 ... Gen I motor, and was made in the early 1960's, around 1964, from what I remember Larry telling me.  Definitely a rare AMC engine ... much like the aluminum 304 blocks/heads for the AMC Indy Program ... some of those are still around, too.

Sincerely, 
Greg Taylor :) <><

The latest issue has an article by Steve Magnante
(sp?) about the experimental/prototype aluminum V8
made by Alcoa for AMC in the 1950s.  The engine has an
aluminum block AND aluminum heads. Larry Daum has the
engine and was interviewed for the story.  Thanks
Larry.  There is also other mention of American Motors
in that issue, which features station wagons.
