Thread: Rebuilding my first 350, need some advice.

Tweet

No I meant pushrods haha. Ive done alot of work on engines V8 and 4 cylinders. Ive just never done a full rebuild. I was thinking the stock ones would be fine. I am gonna get new ones (stock replacements) and a new oem crank just to be safe. Thanks for the help guys. Josh

O, guys i got another question (big surprise huh?) lol. I think the block and cylinders are in good shape but would it be a good idea to get it just honed out and maybe re sleeved? Any other suggestions I should do before I start throwing my money and time at it? haha.

Your machinist will be your guide on what needs to be done to make the block seal well. He may determine it just needs a hone, or it might need a 10, 20,30, or even 40 overbore to get it right. Have you already bought the pistons? If so, did you get standard or oversized ones?

No I havent bought the pistons yet. I was thinking of doing a .30 over bore anyway? A little extra and a little something so its not just a "350" U know? If I do that, the pistons are the only thing I need to change right?
