Look What I did with this Used $700 Engine

[bayer20]

I Bought This Engine for $700 from a friend of mine, It came with a Holley 750 carb, used 1 5/8 headers and HEI ignition, 8.8mm Accel Wires. It was rebuild about 4 years ago but only has around 2500miles since rebuild. It is a 1970 350 4 bolt block with .25cc TRW dome pistons. The heads are some rare 67 327ci Corvette with big 2.02 intake valves. 64cc.I was told it should have around 11:1 It already had a CC 280H camshaft, so no upgrading was needed. After disassembling the engine two of the existing push rods where broken so I replaced them with 16 Chrome Molly ones. The existing Intake was a single plane Weiand which was robbing some bottom end power and was replaced with a new Dual plane Edelbrock. All new gaskets, Bolts and a couple of spray cans i think I gave this Wanna Be Hot rod engine what it deserves. All together it took me 12h of Labor total, a few more and I should be able to fire it up. i also spent an additional $340 on top of the 700.
