Re: 1970 c20 350 vs Toyota I force 5.7

VVT and Throttle body injection is a great thing.
Most of the newer LS's, Gen 3 Hemi's, and Coyote engines have this also.
The good ole 350 is 50 years old. Not many tundra's or Toyota V8s from that era.

But the ole 350 has a few tricks also.

Not bad for a 50 year old design... no superchargers or turbos required.
Even reasonable streetable.

If you want a newer engine to compete with newer technologies.. check the LS3's.

Most are around 430hp, and at least one is rated at 480hp.

I have a smallblock in my truck.. I'd be happy to race your Tundra in it.
