Im considering doing a complete engine swap to a 350 Ramjet, which would include everything i need.
Before i do this, however, i am getting a feel for how much i could get for my 350 TPI setup.

it would include:
350 block with unknown internals. if you want to open her up be my guest, but if you do, you bought it.
COMPLETE TPI SETUP
ECM with 85 Corvette stage 2 49 state legal chip
any wiring you want/need
a helping hand removing the engine.




the bad:
the motor is essentially sealed.
there is nothing wrong with what is inside it, i just dont feel like messing with it.
i will take you for a spin if you want, let you drive it, the whole 9 yards, but i just dont want the hassle of taking **** apart and putting it back together all for no sale.

the motor has a slight rear main seal leak.
its not bad ATM, but these things only get worse IMO.

thats about it.





we are looking at about an honest 300 strong-er RWHP.
i say strong-er because it feels like a lot but i dont know...
i cant be exact because i have no idea whats in the motor and have never dyno'd it.
i also cant be exact because before this i drove an 84 caprice with a v6, the definition of slow.


anyway, if you are or would be interested, make an offer and we will go from there.
no PMs please, they annoy me, unless you REALLY want to, then you can.

----------
you guys get the first shot. after a while ill try craigslist.

i would rather not part out the engine if at all possible.
the reason for this is that this is my daily driver, and if i start parting out the engine then i take the chance of having someone not want the rest.

if someone else wants just the long block then we can talk, but for now, i would like to keep it together.

sorry

not a problem and I completely understand. If it weren't a 20hr drive I'd be interested in the whole thing.

Just let me know if you're able to come across w/the ecu and harness.

Thanks

Re: Gauging Interest here. NORFOLK VA
well its completely up to the market, but since hawks is selling a used 350 TPI with ECM and wiring harness for ****, i think that **** would be fair.
