Re: GoodWrench 350 guys
thats why its so hard to sell used 350's, why buy used when you can get a brand new one

Re: GoodWrench 350 guys
I have the same engine in my 72 4x4 and it has been great. I pull my travel trailer (25 ft.) with it and recently upgraded the heads intake and cam for more go. When this one goes I'll buy another just like it!

Re: GoodWrench 350 guys
its a great deal, however, they are made fairly cheaply. all the parts are made in mexico. there are significant quality differences between a stock chevy four bolt main block and a goodwrench one. but, they seems to do fine.

Re: GoodWrench 350 guys
That is a good deal. I will still go rebuilt because Oregon Engine Rebuilders charges $950 with RV cam and an unlimited mileage lifetime warranty for any non-race application.
A friend of mine had his F*rd 460 built nearly 10 years ago by them for $1000. 3 years ago he had what sounded like a lifter going out, so the guy told him to bring it in. 4 days later he got the engine back fully rebuilt at no charge.

Re: GoodWrench 350 guys
I do not know about lifetime warrentee (how the H@LL do they make money??) But a stock 350 can be rebuilt with all new parts for under $600-700. Powerhouse sells a stock master rebuild kit for 350 for $250 (cast pistons, rings, bearings(rods/mains/cam) cam, lifters, oil pump, timing set, and gaskets for $250 ish. Then the machine work should be reasonable, $40 to R&R rods/pistons, $150 to bore, another $150-200 to redo heads. Looks like $700 total and they'll assemble it and offer a warantee for a $300 or so more. So ready to drop in with warantee for a grand. A crate is worth it if you don't have the time, patience, know-how or a block to start with. But for $1600 I can build way more than 260hp!! The powerhouse kit is infinately upgradeable. Want hyperutectic or forged? X# of $$ more, bigger cam, add X# of $$, premium bearings, etc, etc. I can guarantee you that the mexican built crate motors aren't put together with premium stuff, just average run of the mill parts. Heck our original 350 ran for 100, 200, 300 thousand miles and more and were put together with cast pistons etc. Do not be fooled by the price and warantee, build it yourself!!

He also builds a mean Toyota motor. I had a 22re and a friend (same guy with the 460) had the V6 both done by him.
