    So where is a good place to get rebuild parts for the chevy 250 engines? All the auto parts places around me tell me im nutz, and the engine doesnt exist... in there computer.

    I pulled the motor out of a 1977 Nova, and have 3 more laying in the woods (complete cars) so i know im not crazy.

    As of right now i mainly need a complete gasket kit and an oil pan.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks

    The 250 is one of the most common 6's anywhere, find a partsman that is older than a block of cheese and familiar with something other than ricers.

    I agree with the above comment. I don't have problems finding the regular parts anywhere. My local NAPA has a250 on a stand just inside the front door.

    For hot rod parts I would use http://www.cliffordperformance.net/ , Jegs, stovebolt.com, Summitt...there are many.

    should be pretty easy to get. shares rod bearing w/ some v8's. most of the gaskets and main bearing intershange with 292's. i have heard of some using 307 pistons if you are looking for a cheaper flat top. places on ebay sell the gasket kits. oil pan is pretty common the 292 ones are a quart larger but same bolt pattern. the 230 and 198 are the same i believe. the nova ones are shaped a little different because of steering. good luck

    For inexpensive but decent rebuild pieces check Northern Auto Parts
    http://www.northernautoparts.com/ProductDetail.cfm?ProductId=646.

    There are some Ebay stores that sell engine kits for a good price. Always scroll through their feedback and check for what buyers say about similar items from them before ordering though.
