need ideas on rebuilding my 350 motor

[derrik.kasinger]

I have a 1985 k10 scottsdale 4x4. Im pulling the motor to rebuild it and. I want to mildly rebuild it. Whats are some good ways to do this? Parts wise. Im wanting more hp and torque. Any ides and parts would be nice.  Im goin to be droving this truck almost daliy and will be playing in it also. Not to worried bout gas mileage.

Need more info.  Like what is your budget.

[derrik.kasinger]

Dont really have a budget. I have a time schedule.  I need it running by winter. Lol .

Derrik, the old saying goes  "never build the house without first counting the costs."
Set yourself a dollar amount, then you can save the money and have a better starting point. Better hurry. Winter's comin..

If i was lucky enough to not have a budget then i would get a HT 383.

   SBC...Look at the specials Jegs have for a nice crate motor.  I think it's under 2K with dizzy, and all bolt ons.  Plus they ussually offer free freight...just a thought.....

Check the 440 hp budget build in sept 2002 issue of car craft.This is one sweet running motor

How can I get a hold of this issue?

[Breadvan]

Go to your local library. Mine had a book that covered going from a stock goodwrench 350, changing the heads, cams, headers,etc. with dyno testing at each step.

Buying a crate engine is a lot less than building one

Unless you want the experience or want to keep matching numbers or something


Our K10 is a Frankenstein so we don't have that concern
