g.m. vortec 350 crate 2060. jegs
intake 230 jegs
one piece rear seal flexplate 60.00 local parts store.
carb 250.00
small electric fuel pump 100.00 tops..

225 hp roller cammed 350 that doesn't need special oil.. doesn't need the 20 minute hail mary break in.., and doesn't leak oil .
Better heads, and better power under the curve (under the power peak)
better fuel economy.. than the basic 350. with flat tappet cam and 76 cc heads and 8.0 compression (listed as 8.4 but real world comes in at closer to 8.0) vortec is 9.4
