Where to buy a 350 TPI ? - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

Well, im pretty sure the 350 TPI would be the best engine to put in a 89' RS v8. So I can't seem to find any place that sells 350 tpi's. So if anyone has some links where I can buy a 350 tpi crate motor, post em.

thanks

if you're going to spend time to put an L98 in the car, which you will have to change the ecm as well, why not go ahead and get an LT1, more power and better fuel efficency as well for about the same price.

You can buy LT1 shortblocks from many different places. You still need the top end and wiring. I would look for a donor motor from your local junk yard, f-body classifieds, ebay and such and go from there. You may find a nice core that doesn't need a rebuild. I would go with an LT1 swap over any L98 swap. LT1's are everywhere now and they have much more to offer than TPI.
