The ole 2.8 is starting to give out on me. She started to knock a little last night, but today, it's doing it all the time. Not really sure if I want to just put a 3.4 in, or do I wanna go carb 350 or 305. She's been good to me, going to treat her well from now on.

Why would it have to be a carbed 305 or 350?

I would go 3.4 or better yet 3.4/3400/3500 hybrid.

My daily, need the replacement to be quick and simple. I have everything for either swap. Would just need the 3.4 or a 305/350 and a trans.

A 3.4 should be very quick and easy.

Looks like you just want a quick engine replace and back on your way. Call around the local engine places and see what they have in stock but for a quick job I would probably look for a 3.4

Yeah a 3.4 is a good bet and you can use your old tranny too

If I were needing to do something quick I would go with the 3.4. I myself was planning to drop a 3.4 in my 88 but since I'm about to get my fiero on the road the camaro is probably going to go to the dark side but it'll be a while before that happens since I'll be moving into a place with a garage and plenty of room and time to work on it without worrying about having to cover everything up when it's about to pour

the only way id go 350 over 3.4 is if u can get a good running 350 cheap,i wouldnt waste my time at all with a 305, but a 3.4 swap will still be the cheapest option

It would get a 3.4, but I want my cam and 1.6 roller rockers on the 3.4. But, I'm going to pull my belt off to make sure it's not a pulley making the noise.

Seems like a pulle ywill be the cause of the sound. It hasn't knocked, or made a knocking sound since I drove it to work. Going to do some investigation when I get home from work.
