Re: 305 to 350 Engine Swap

I used that same engine for the swap into my '86. You'll likely need an adapter for the temp gauge sender. I tried using a 70's pickup sender that fit the hole in the lock, and it read very high during break-in. Gave me a good scare.

I bought a brass adapter from the plumbing department at Lowe's and reused the old sender, and everything was fine then. Just a heads up...
