ProGrade · July 30, 2010, 01:56:34 PM

I painted mine where it said 2.9 and then left the rest bare casting. I resurfaced the raised machined off parts. I relly need to dig out pictures for you.

tow points: hooks on the frame would be good. should have a strong set of points front and back. just dont use the small midsize truck tow hooks for the front. get a set of chevy 88-98 tow hooks. basically universal and still beefy and strong

imy bet freind ran his 78 chevy 350 with maybe 1qt of oil in it because the pan leaked and the wires were in the wrong wiming order and it was falling apart and it was a plow truck and it still managed to run JUST FINE. and when he pulled the top end of it off everything was clean... dont know how it did it but it did

nothing was clean. there was over an inch of build up oil/carbon it looked like. just proves the sbc 350 even more so!
