6k huh?

lol

*mrhino* · 12-22-2010, 07:56 PM

what 350 plus 0.30 = 380 right

cam.man67 · 12-22-2010, 08:03 PM

A 350 .030 over is a 355, so maybe if it's bored .30 over, besides cutting through the cylinder walls, it could be a 380.

Does he mean $600?

I thought it was $60.00

**mr48chev** · 12-22-2010, 08:08 PM

I'd be hard pressed to want to give 600 for it as it is but everyone is entitled to his dream I guess. As Harley my Aussie said the last time he sat on a sheet of sandpaper in my truck "ruff".

After looking closer at the photos, I'd swear that was a truck I sold about ten years ago for 300 bucks with no engine.

I had no idea my 454 bored .060 was a 514. Who needs to buy a 502???? Sharpie

oldblue1968chevy · 12-22-2010, 10:33 PM

Sweet I have a 380, I probably have more power than those stroker guys!!

ya it is a classic · 12-22-2010, 10:50 PM

same thing happened here in montana some guy has some crappy 69 i think it was unrestored/rush holes/dents restores dream was what he called it haha 9 grand was all he wanted for it

magwakeenercew2jh · 12-23-2010, 01:12 AM

HEY! You guys are being pretty harsh on this guy.

If you read the full ad, you can see you get the truck and the ten acres it sits on.

And, you get a condo in Manhattan. And, a deed to a bridge that is pretty close to the condo, too.

**special-K** · 12-23-2010, 07:25 AM

He must have read all the posts that say shortbeds are worth a lot more. It looks like the Hatfield-McCoy auction is catching up to Barrett-Jackson.

409impala1 · 12-23-2010, 09:57 AM

worked on a TH350 once, it was so worn out it was a TH400..

pat 70/71 · 12-23-2010, 10:57 AM

I'm wondering if that motor has new piston return springs? six grand, I think not. cheers, Pat

ffk · 12-23-2010, 01:32 PM

.030 or .060 are pretty standard sizes to bore out a 350. It translates to making the engine displacement bigger. Example: If the piston rod length is kept the same, a 350 bored .030 would actually be a 355, and one that is bored .060 is actually 360 cubic inches.

1949gmc · 12-23-2010, 01:37 PM

It doesn't have a 3/4 race cam, though, so I'd say it's probably not worth the six grand.......... but if it did, look out!

HA HA I haven't heard that in a few years. That was always funny when people would say that. Every time I would here someway say that, I would say Shooot I only got 1/2 a race cam. couldn't afford the whole cam.

justtime520 · 12-23-2010, 07:19 PM

I wish I lived closer. I would snatch that up and I might even pay him more than asking price. Just gets old buying original rust free parts for a reasonable price out here.

Guess you don't remember when Ed Iskendarian sold his cams that way..3/4 race or full race. Back when all hotrods had flatheads and you were either a race car driver or a candya**!

Thank you for in-lighting me. See ya learn something new everyday, in fact just yesterday I learned where my "wenis" was.

swamp rat · 12-23-2010, 01:44 PM

Regardless of the price ( way too high) and the engine bore i would love to have the truck, the property would be a great selling point.

GOPAPA · 12-23-2010, 07:33 PM

He needs to join the forum and after he finds out what the bore really is ,he just might keep it.. you can learn a lot on here .. cant ya ..LOL
