Re: Show your motor..73-87
Here is a shot of the engine that I am currently working on putting in the truck.
It is currently sitting in the truck with a freshly rebuilt 700R4. Just waiting on Christmas to be over to get all the stuff to make it run! It is a 350 4 bolt main bored 20 over. I think it is a early 70's block. It has 202 76cc heads. Comp Thumpr Cam, and everything else is just pretty basic. |

Re: Show your motor..73-87
Here's my 350-4 bolt for my 74 project, Bored 30 over 9.5-1 with the biggest Iskey cam I could get (can't find my spec sheet) and still marginally have enough vacuum for power brakes. The heads got a major work over installed with steel gaskets, Both intake and headers were port matched. It computer dyno-ed in the 340 hp range.
Assembled in my family room; Yes..... That's one of my custom built/tuned Q-jets sitting on there. It was in the truck long enough to test run and find the "Good" used turbo 350 junk, I now have a new race ready turbo 350 and 2000 stall converter to install when the truck goes back together. Just before stripping the truck to the bare frame; This post just wouldn't be complete without a pic of my 502 even though it's in my 97, It could go in any year.

Re: Show your motor..73-87
355 with RHS Aluminum Heads, Manley H-Beam Rods, SRP 21cc dish pistons, 7.8 CR, Summit 1105 Cam. Was all set with a 70mm turbo but I destroyed the rear end, and exploded the trans so that was put on hold.

Re: Show your motor..73-87
That looks really good 85 c-10. I will see if I can get a picture of the 355 that is going in my truck. But right now is nothing special...at all.
Edit: I stole a pic of my "new" motor from Bob's build thread. I got the 355 hr took out of Fred. I will be getting a few parts from another member as soon as I can get my money together. Like an intake, carb, and HEI. Then I will paint it all and shove it in the truck.
