The chromed 265 roth car was documented in hrm.
Is go with 305 ho heads
Seems that'd be the easiest route of a 350 ci early block. 62-67 327 block with a 350 or even a 305 crank after line boring
I would imagine were you to want to get nice pistons a 340 would be easier to get higher end pistons too
That was the pic I was hunting for lol
Everyone keeps talking about 1967 350s. If I remember correctly it was just a regular sj 327 block that was machined at the factory for a large...
Was a joke about the billet crank. But yeah I read that. Who would've thought Buick rods?
I hadn't seen that one. Biggest I'd seen was 400 lol
Never figured out why they used a non traditional crank. ;)
Don't you mean a 307 stroker? ;)
Unfortunately the 1959 crank they used isn't era correct according to the hamb lol
I have a 1959 hrm where they did a 400 ci from a 57 283
People have bored and stroked 265s and 283s to 350 ci
Reminds me I've intended to adapt my original 235 assembly to later carbs
Started making a new sill for the passenger rear [ATTACH]
Took a minute to catch this for some reason. But yup lol
Yup. SBC is the main one I still see on a regular basis. Haven't seen a non Chevy nylon Cam gear in years
So anytime I suggest someone replacing a timing set on an SBC in case It still has the nylon Cam gear I get a bunch of guys trying to jump up and...
Guess I haven't posted here yet lol[ATTACH]
Even if it's a disco Corvette lol
Not to mention if some idiot hits a fifties Buick they'll probably feel it more than you would
Suffix code does come back to a Corvette. 73-77. Would need date code
I honestly don't care that it's not a "significant" Barris custom. It's a Barris custom that really springs my sprog
Considering I already own the new reman Wilson starter for a 55-57 and the plate I showed in my pic is just over $200 a long with I'd have to buy...
My other idea to fix it was to t5 swap it using my 57 Chevy bell housing. But that'd be even more cash and more involved. Plus if rather save that...
This same engine was so babied the when I changed the timing set when I pulled the engine 3 years ago it still had a mint condition nylon Cam gear lol
Dealers were instructed to install the $500 starter I mentioned. Truck it came out of was a low usage government vehicle. Us military the first...
I honestly didn't know about the defect until I had my issue and researched it. I've owned literally 100 of the almighty "010 four bolt main"...
So not actually damaged. A defect. On an engine with 80k from brand new lol
No it's the one in every 5 010 blocks that had the starter holes drilled wrong. Turns out the starter it came with was also drilled wrong but in a...
