Car: 88 Camaro SC | just got a 350 need some advice please
Yesterday I bought a 5.7L TPI 350 for $300. complete with ecm, wiring, fuel lines, MAF, air box, and even the gass tank and charcoal canister. The guy told me it had bent push rods but ran when pulled. I still have to strip it all down and check everything out. This is my first build and my first V8. My best friends father in law is going to help me build it, he's was a mechanic for years and has built a lot of cars. We're thinking we would like to run a carb on it and sell the entire TPI setup. Currently I don't have a car for this motor, so I'm wondering what would be a good car to put this into after it's built I.E. easiest car to swap it into and be able to use it for what I want. I can get a TBI 305 hardtop IROC for $900.00 from a friend. I'd like this car to be all performance, but if possible I'd like to be able to drive it on the street as well.
Here's a pic of the engine.
Here's my V6 DD I'd rather not drop this 350 in it since it's sucha reliable car as is, and it's a T-Top car
