Don't know what u're budget is but Year One has a 400+ HP 350 for $2995. Just add carb, starter & tranny! I still have one & it's a rockin' motor! PN CT350PC1

Go big or go home - just kidding - check out a 383 sbc

I would look into the 383 also. Very good motor for torque and horsepower! Good luck with your search...CR

Then try the Blueprint short or long blocks. They've been around for a while & avail @ Jegs & others. Never used them but maybe someone else has! Good luck!

You can try this place as well. They are all reman engines, but you can get most of their long blocks for under a grand.

Heck, you can get a 350 from them for less than 700. Thats not including shipping or anything else.

I believe the headers and dist will fit, intake and valve covers will Not. Vortec intakes bolt from the top down, not perpendicular to the gasket surface like old engines.
