This is what I have to look forward to! GM crate 350 bored .030 over, edelbrock intake, M/T valve covers...pretty sharp

 

[K85 Octane]

so pretty

 

[wilpetty]

I am going to use as many parts off the old motor as I can. I want to paint match it. What type of paint would I get? Anything special other than a can of spray from sherwin williams or the like?

 

[Deuling]

Engine paint....

 

[wilpetty]

I will have to see if that color is premade or if someone can colow match it

 

[Teck]

Engine paint is what you need for the heat. But it's all about the prep if you want it to last.

Brother will be here tomorrow with my motor Will take a few pics of it. I don't even know what year 350 it is so I have no clue what the hp is...Any year 350 will be okay to hookup to my trans right?

 

[Deuling]

Yes

 

[82355]

Yes, along with any 250, 292, 262, 265, 267, 283, 302, 305, 307, 327, 400, 366T, 396, 402, 427, 427T, 454, or 502T.

I hope I got a year where the 350 came with 350 hp. The 165 just wasn't enough burnout

 

[Deuling]

I dont think a 350 ever came factory with 350 hp unless it was like a fancy corvette motor or something
