![]() ![]() I got my first vehicle, luckily just what i wanted, an '84 very rusty, but hey it was free.Im only 15, Next weekend im gonna pull out the good 305 and drop in a bad one. Stupid move, i know but its one of the conditions to the free part. Anyone got any 350's for say about $300. Wish me luck, i got this truck all planned out. I can't wait for a good 350. ![]() ![]() ![]() Last edited by silverado_ss03; 12-30-2003 at 05:22 AM. |

if you're pulling a good motor, and trading it for a junk one, leave it sit without an engine for a while until you can find another good one.

I have a nice SBC 406 that will fit right in that hole. I also have a 50k mile 305 that runs perfect too!!

Get the casting numbers off of it to be sure, then go here: www.mortec.com
A friend of mine told me today that one engine he had that I was thinking of snagging was a 350. I got the numbers, (right side, facing front, driver side if it was in truck, behind the head where the tranny bolts up) turned out it was a 305 or 262. ![]() Good luck with the truck! ![]()

thanks ill need the luck, im currently driving it around and it barely picks up 60 and the brakes barely work, but if i put it in neutral and rev it up then pop it in drive i can make it burn out a little. only a little because i discovered it has a limited slip (im so happy) its a scary truck to drive because at 60 it starts shaking like a mother trucker. i think the trans is stuck because its a brand new rebuild but when they put it in and parked it for about a year and sunday was the first time it had been driven so im begging my mom for a frame up restoration
