No kidding.
Me and my dad tore down the 350 we're working on last fall. It's just been sitting in the garage as the bare block waiting to get bored...

Good news is that I should be ordering the engine kit this week for it!

Hey Feen, check this out. I don't have to hound you for that gt40 tubular intake anymore...

Bought it from a guy in Kansas City...well actually Independence but close enough...

350 bucks for this piece of equipment.

Update guys... I sent my head to the machine shop.

Ordered new fuel injectors today, be here Thursday.

Looks like u r going to have a nice engine once u r done. I was going to tell you to scrap that stock intake until I seen the one you purchased. nIcE====

you are spending all kinds of money.....


is the manifold going on this motor ......

[noble steed]

The GT40 intake is indeed going on this motor. I figured it might help out the cam a little bit more but these heads are just so restrictive I probably won't notice a huge difference. I will keep my stock intake for the 89. I'm making good money now so I kind of have a little more extra money to spend so the end is in sight now. Gosh, I can't wait 'till I get to fire it up!

Thanks K. I hope it turns out better than it does in reality and I think my patience is holding up good so I think I won't overlook anything...

[HercDriver]

So I feel like I have gotten to know you today. I'm on duty (Marine Corps) today and I have read this thread from start to finish. It's awesome what your doing. I hope it all works out well for you when you go to crank it up. Keep us informed.

[noble steed]

Thank You Herc...

I was just messing around today having a little fun and I managed to put this pic together. I only set the heads on there with the intake just to see what she will look like, and I still have to get the dirty looking head rebuilt so it will be clean in the next pics I get. What you all think?

I still have to paint the block and heads when everything gets here.

looks good....

i have always like the looks of that manifold......

[noble steed]

I would really and honestly like to say this motor will dyno at 240 but I'm sure that will be shot down like a lead balloon...

no need to shoot you down on this one....

with the right tune its doable.....

[noble steed]

Well I don't know about a tune but now I have pretty much every performance upgrade besides big injectors but I don't think I need them. Got the full intake upgrade now, all exhaust upgraded A/C eliminator, underdrive pulleys and it's completely fresh so I think 230-40 or take a few sounds about right... Doesn't it? Not for sure...
