My new 350 build Ordeal! Techinspector you out there?

Okay everyone I appreciate your suggestions for my other engine build.

Now my situtation has changed. I found a truck for sale with the right trans and a goodwrench crate motor with the howell fuel injection system. Also I recieved a megasquirt computer in the deal its brand new and never u used. Suposedly the power train has only 35K on it. I have seen the reciepts for the engine. So at the very least its 3 years old.

Okay so I want to power this thing up it only has like 250 hp. What can I do? I want to keep the EFI and retune it to work with what I add to the engine.

I still have a set of rebuilt 062 heads. Should I put them on? Should I change it to the megasquirt? Should I rering the engine?

What would you guys do? I am trying to build a torqu-eeyy 350 hp engine on fuel injection.

THanks I really appreciate everything.

Sorry Lurch, I know nothing about EFI and am unwilling to learn.:(

Ah old school! I almost dont blame you.

So what about the engine if I were going to just carb it? Anything I can do to spruce it up?

Anyone out there have any opinions?

What are the specs pf the engine? What exactly do you you ..fuel injection wise?

The cheapo goodwrench engine
350 Cubic inches 4.00" Bore, 3.47" stroke

8.5:1 compression ratio.

250 HP @4300 rpm

350 ft. lbs of torque @ 3600 rpm

I think I have been told 12cc pistons

4 bolt main

The fuel injection is a howell Multi port injection with the 2 bbl throttle body

I am trying to get between 350 and 400 hp but will take torque over high hp. I want it to be a daily driver capable engine.

Thanks Brian

You will need to raise the compression..change the camshaft. Flat top pistons,small chamber aluminum heads [64cc] would be best. headers and a tuned exhaust.

Okay so I spoke to howell fuel injection. They told me that the two Multi port system could support about 330 hp. From what I understand the fuel injection can be written to accept whatever cam/head combo I put on here.

So can someone suggest some heads and a cam to bolt on this gm goodwrench engine. I am looking for a very torquey (or as much as possible) 330 hp engine build.

Any suggestions? I want to keep the "stock" short block, I dont really want to bang out the pistons.

Thanks

Brian
