I am going to go through a TH350 and do a good rebuild on it. Anyone have any sugestions on what parts and where to find them(A catlog perhaps) to build it to handle 500+hp?and what size stall should i get. the cam is a crane powermax hyd roller, int duration 234 exh duration 242 lift is int .539 exh .558 3,000 to 6,500 rpm range.
Let me begin, I am not a expert on engine rebuilding but, will give you a general guide line....A 350 in3 engine producing more than 400 hp will not be pleasant to drive daily on the street.
If you want a streetable 350 look at the components in a zz4 engine. The crate version costs around $3800 complete w/carb.
Engine experts step in....BTW-I buy all my parts from Summit or jegs.
are you building the motor or trans. ? :confused:Quote:

With that high horse engine your stock type sprag won't last. You will want extra clutches and other hi-perf parts. Try these guys. http://dragtrans.com/Racing-Transmissions.html or these guys www.bulkpart.com :D
First off LT1 im building an engine but needed input on how to build up the tranny to handle the large engine. This will not be a daily driver btw, its just going to be a toy. Thanks for the input. Mike..

JMO if you've got a good trans. id put a good shift kit in it and try not to jerk it around to much and go for it. if it needs a rebuild id add a few extra clutch to the clutch packs and put in a good shift kit and try not to jerk it around to much. a trans will stand a lot until you start abusing it. may need a good stall conv. before its all over with. :HMMM:
What size stall ya think i might need?

you need to see what cam, intake, gear ratio and a few other things you are gonna run before you get to the conv. :cool:
the cam is a crane powermax hyd roller, int duration 234 exh duration 242 lift is int .539 exh .558 3,000 to 6,500 rpm range. The intake is a super victor single plane. with a mighty demon carb. gearing ill need help on eventually when i find the car, right now im just trying to get my power plant ready to go.Quote:
