I went over to this place and as soon as i walk in this guy just starts tryin to sell me a 350. 350 HP, dart heads, decent comp cam, valve covers, edelbrock intake and 600 cfm carb., holley 14 in air cleaner, and a two year wananty on abrand new engine, for $3200. Then id have to get an HEI distributer and wires. Other than that, thats all id need so roughly around $350. Do you think this would be a good buy, or am i better off getting a completly assemble engine just about the same exept 300Hp for $2500?

 

to me, its worth the extra bank to get the extra power... but its up to just how much you are wanting to do yourself

 

Yea true, but will my stock tranny(auto 700r4)and stock rear end be able to hold up the 300-350 hp.

 

if you got the $$ id go with the brand new 350, and if it doesnt have any miles on it, even better, you got a brand spankin new engine

 

it will be fine, so long as you dont abuse it ALL the time.

 

i have an engine forsale with atleast 350 hp for only $1800. block andinternals wererebuilt by gm less then 5000 miles ago and the set up it has now has 0 miles.
i dont see how this is still forsale, i have been trying to sell for quit a while and people are looking to spend upwards of $2500 for the same amount of power. theres nothing wrong at all with the engine, i had it running in the truck it came out of before i took it apart, it started right up, after we fixed the stuck electric choke.
