Hello,
Still a little new here, but I believe I have found a pretty good deal. A mid 70's 350 block bored 30 over with flat top pistons 2 bolt main. A guy here in my town has this motor that he pulled because it was using a little oil between oil changes, but was not smoking. He has a pair of good 350 stock heads. He is pretty much selling it as a short block as he had to steal parts off of it (i.e intake, distributor, oil pan, and all the front accessories. The good news is I have a 305 that I have PLENTY of good parts on including the small chamber 416 heads. When I go look at the 350 block what should I be looking for? I don't want to buy a piece of junk and need to know what kind of red flags to walk away from.?? Thanks! Sorry no casting numbers yet.
