Need some help my friends...
Small Block gave me an engine for my '48, a early '80's model 4 bolt 350 that has been punched out 40 over. Everything is there but the crank. First question: will any crank work and whats the best for it.
Next, it came with a set of injector heads I think, they have 1.94 or so intake valves but they have those four bolts down the center of the valve covers. The quadra-pig manifold that came with it was also machined in the two center bolt holes on each side to make them bigger. Question #2: Why?
Question #3: Are these heads going to work, they have marks like this: " //" on the ends of them. I like the big valves but not the valve covers. what are they?
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks Guys, thats greatly appreciated
Welcome back Tech, glad to hear from you again, and also welcome to my good friend Montemanchuck, glad to see you here.
I don't mind the valve covers at all but I am a little concerned about what I have read about Hi swirl and not recomended for Hi-pro applications.
Don, that is an excellant referance page, thanks. Told me that I have '80's model Vortec heads alright.
Deffinently been thinking stroker Bob, the block is in perfect condition, just needs a little machining on the bottom of the cylinders for clearance which I can do myself.
Do you guys think these heads will be worth me porting and polishing?
