New Heartbeat for Old GMC - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I've scored a new 355 (350 bored .030 over) with forged pistons and roller rockers (couldn't find cam spec card)

A friends wife nagged him about having too many Unfinished projects in his garage.

Oh yeah, I only paid $100 for it. The price included the stand in the photo and machine shop build sheet.

That is an incredible score! Fresh from the machine shop on the stand with the build sheet. Can't do any better than that for the price! Do you feel guilty after such a theft...LOL?

I forgot to include the motor was run for about 200 miles before he got rid of the car it was in.

I'm still amazed. But while we were there picking up the motor his wife was nagging him (a little), so I can see why after a year or so of that he just wanted to get her off of his back.

And no guilt whatsoever : )
