    Another newbie needing SBC 350 build help

     



    Hello all, I am about to pull the motor from my 86 Jimmy (been blowing oil out the dipstick) and I want to completely rebuild it. It's a 350 with 305 heads (confusion about what block I had. Bought it thinking it had a 305 because of the VIN), summit racing headers, Edelbrock aluminum intake 2701, and an Edelbrock 600 carb 1406 (electric choke). I'm basically looking to increase reliability first and power if I can, without sacrificing reliability. I mainly use the truck for moving stuff, cruising, and off-roading. I'm looking for advice on heads, cam, crank, pistons, and assembly. Again, I'm a newb on this stuff so you may have to explain it to me like I'm 5. Thanks in advance for any advice! I look forward to making progress on this project.
