Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
This is pretty interesting. It would be interesting to have a companion poll about cubic inches.

Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
Original 350...more than likely freshened up at some time in its past.

Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
I find it interesting that at this point there's not that much less LS engines than small blocks, and more LS's than big blocks.

Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
That is a good looking engine Matt. Looks like it could have come with it.

Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
That is how I think every swap should look. Attention to detail is damn near perfect

Re: Poll: Which engine powers your 67-72?
350 from a '72 4x4 in a '71 GMC longbed...does the trick, getting cleaner as I go. PO did the swap, I've been working on it for about 4 years and LOVE IT!
