Default pics of the engine im putting in my 86 iroc

Just got the engine done for my iroc took about 3 hours to build and about $2500 to build lol and no thats not a typo lol. Its a 4 bolt main 350 and i have added a 750 cfm carb, aluminum heads, intake, valve covers, gear drive, new cam, everthing is new, its going to have a high compression or it might be so high that it might have to run on cam 2 witch is $10 a gallon in that case i will fill the tank once enjoy it and sell it lol but im hopeing it will run on 93, praying lol i have been told 400-450 hp and i know i will have to upgrade the 5 speed but that will have to wait im broke lol im only 17 so it will take about 3 weeks to get another gran to do somthing luckly i have a good job better then most kids but when i do upgrade im hoping for a ls1 6 speed, would be great

here are some pics of the engine and the interior of my car the ground effects are in it so they dont get run over lol but no cuts or anything on the interior :

i wouldent of know i just got the car about a month and a half ago so i dont know anything about the inside of it plus i cant drive it yet so i havent even looked i drove it once and thats when i picked it up lol it had a blown head gasket and a leak in the radiator but we got it home its not the same engine as this one. needs quite a bit like fog lights but im getting a bunch of parts like front fenders the rear window louvers and any part i need for around 200 so its a good deal

i guess i consider my self lucky, i wont be putting 2500 in to my 350. i stumbled across a 400 HP built 355 that im gonna be getting for 700 . the reason im getting it cheap is because i know the guy and he is hard up for money,

If you where buying it all new why wouldn't you of made it into a 383 and gained some Ci because you said its all new and that you would have obviously bought a new cranch shaft any way why wouldn't you of just went with the other one? just my 2cents.

You know that most 350 blocks will need to be machined to hold the 400 crank, right? It costs a good bit of money.
