350 in my 64

big_al_71 · 04-16-2009, 04:30 PM

Small Block "400" in my "71"

fastom · 04-16-2009, 05:06 PM

Here's mine

bmfpeterson · 04-16-2009, 05:08 PM

Here is a Pic of a sb 350 I have (its for sale too) I will post a pic of motor too when I get a pic

C10Sim · 04-16-2009, 05:30 PM

They all look good! Keep posting

What do you guys estimate total cost to build your engine (from block to wires)

Tx Firefighter · 04-16-2009, 05:34 PM

I'm poor and can't afford too much bling, so I tend to paint and detail. This is a 454 I had awhile back. I put an ebay Edelbrock intake manifold on it, but everything else was stock GM tin.

The paint is POR15 engine paint applied with a brush. There is no better engine paint made in my opinion.

Bob 68327 · 04-16-2009, 05:46 PM

Here's mine Chrome won't get ya home !!

70rs/ss · 04-16-2009, 05:55 PM

No picts, but Chevy orange or black, period! I am more of a flat black motor guy now, why advertise, plain black is "stockish" and flys under the radar!

I built a 383 stroker out of a Vortec 350, I'll have under $3k in it from carb to pan and it too will be flatish black!

Sinister · 04-16-2009, 05:58 PM

Here's the 350 that was in my '72

Rust Buster · 04-16-2009, 05:59 PM
