Alright so a nice big update, as you might of seen my post about how to take off my front clip on my truck.

Well I posted my 305/th350 on craigstlist to be sold, well today it was sold so now come the fun part just have to take off the front clip and pull the motor and make room for my new motor and transmission that I will be picking up next Saturday if everything goes as planned so right now I'm super pumped!

[77ChevySharkBite]

Well today is the day fellas. I get to go get my tbi 350, I just have to go do 1 errand before I go get the motor, but it's raining right now supposed to stop around 10am and then that's when I'll be headed out to go get it! So I'll post up a picture once it's been picked up and headed back home!

I wish I could report that I did, but I didn't my dad wanted me to get rid of the current 305 before we went and got it. So tonight/tomorrow will be working to pull the motor and prep for a pick up to be sold.

looks like you got the dual plane performer, and a nicely tuned carb. 260-290.. already have the headers, that should be 280 or more. install a new set of plugs, oil, and flame thrower HEI, and you could pull 290 some horse

I know right, I felt like a fat kid does when he sees cake when I saw it was a 350!

Yep, I actually recently did the plugs a while back so there still good and fresh, just got to really put some new wires, distributor, and I'll have a nice little torque monster hopefully I can get 300hp to the ground, I'm going to get some new heads eventually too so that'll greatly improve things too.

yeah I'm probably going to go with a brand call pro comp, or get a really good set with a good reputation.

Heck I'll probably run these heads there not 190cc there 185cc but you can always go get them port and polished

I'm not going to be racing as you know, so I just want solid power with a nasty cam.

[77ChevySharkBite]

Here we go!

I recorded it and put it on youtube it's a short video but you hear it. It's sort of lopey once it gets warmed up.
