Re: questions for a engine swap

First thing you need to do is set a budget on this engine swap. What can you do with your budget. Will the I6 live until you can save the money for what you want? I am not a fan of the 305 just like most others. I have used them before because it was all I had and no money to do better at the time. If you must use a 305 at least an upgrade to a 350 will be much easier in the future.

Also, I would consider finding another I6 and building it up. You will get better torque and horse power from a 292 than you ever would from a 305.

By the way, I do brake inspections at Winco Foods (I-5 at exit 271) twice a year and maybe I can meet you and check out your 70 sometime while I am there.

What ever you decide, make it fun,
Tom
