HAPPY HOLIDAYS ! .

Getting ready to unload our mid-century couch after bringing it back from the upholsterer where it was completely redone. Even my long-bed won't quite hold it with the tailgate up. :-) I kind of like how the truck color complements the couch colors. Or vice versa.

**special-K** · 12-09-2018, 07:15 PM

That's quite a couch!

You can't see em but there is a load of leaves in the bed

Going to drop off an engine for another truck in my truck.

Did a part swap for a nice FE390 for a Blueprint 383 roller.

Fe is going in a 60's F truck, 383 is going in my truck.

For a minute there, I thought that was the location of your truck engine

The 430 HP Blueprint 383 Hyd Roller

I have the stock 255hp 350 4 bolt, it will be going in the shed, its in really nice condition, just not super powerful.

Local rod shop was looking for a good FE block/engine, so we did a deal of sorts.

Cool, do you have experience with them? Good quality?

**3757chevy** · 12-10-2018, 08:29 PM

Fixed it.

Andy4639 · 03-27-2019, 09:43 AM

RTTS car show in Myrtle beach SC. Loaded the ramp truck up with Woodie and 3 bikes and pedal car. Drove 5 hrs.

Chris_oz · 12-11-2018, 01:47 AM

I consider good vacuum anything in double numbers, this engine had 11 to 12 in Hg at idle, which is enough for brakes to work and not give drive ability issues.

Big duration and long overlap cams will kill the vacuum and other methods of boosting the brakes may be required.

Barnfind46 · 12-11-2018, 08:56 AM

What motor did you end up getting and what are you taking out?

Pulled a 327. Bought a 350 crate. It is the stock base engine.

VWNate1 · 12-12-2018, 10:38 AM

Understood ;

You said it idles smoothly @ 900RPM's so I was expecting at least 15" HG @ idle, a big overlapping cam isn't goilg to idle smoothly @ 900RPM .

? Do they make electric high volume vacuum pumps ? . I know they have engine powered ones for Diesel engines......
