Looking for at least a short block 305 or greater (preferably a 350) within a few hour of me (zip 42211).

Condition dosnt matter as a was looking at local junkyards to find one to rebuild... as long as the price and location are right... tight budget and i dont have a clue what it would cost me to get one shipped...

 

Welcome to the board. Always nice to see another Kentuckian at thirdgen.

I have a friend with a 305 shortblock, but we are in London ky zip 40741.
You should be able to find someone with a 350 around Bowling Green.

Do the 350 if you can. It will cost about the same to build.

 

Thanks mate.

Im in trigg dont know too much about bowling green but ill be looking all around and keeping my ears peeled for any info.

 

Check out www.kyfbodies.org or craigslist in your area. Maybe pick up a vortec truck long block at a local yard.

Good luck.

 

thanks alot mate didnt think of craigs... cant find any in local yards... slowly working my way throught the yards out from the lakes... sometimes being in the middle of nowhere is great and sometimes it sucks... wouldnt be so hard if i was still in jersey... but then of course i wouldnt have gotten the car when my last ones engine froze...

 

still need the the 350, ive got a vortec 350. for 100 short block, crank pistons cam lifters push rods, flex plate, and also the heads for another 400, but if wou want to drive to ohio ill take 300 for it all

 

Funny, I'm here in cadiz too! And better yet I have a 305 whole engine you can get. Let me know if you still want one.

 

I have 2 350 blocks.

 

Sorry I havent responded in awhile I've been busy with work and the car... I'm still looking but am low on funds because its my main ride and the trans died so i had to buy a "new" one of those which im haveing trouble with now... oh Cadiz realy? where abouts I've seen a few around... I out by the lakes... Ill just have to hope someone still has one when i get the funds... oh and ohios a bit far sorry...

 

You've probably seen me driving 'round cadiz and this side of barkley. In-laws live down in shotgun hollar - yea. Red camaro with the ugly black trim pieces and black hood. I ain't been driving it for the last month myself because of the engine-swap-&-trans-upgrade-turned-to-trans-trouble. Right now it's parked in the landlords building until I can get the T-5 setup from one of the other guys on here that happens to be local-ish.

If you don't want this motor it'll end up finding it's way to the junkyard. I won't be dragging it with me to post when we get moved there mid-oct. If you want it just let me know and I'll try to do what I can to keep it out of 'yard for ya'.

 

I have a good running 94k 350 shortblock out of an 88 Corvette for 450 near D.C.

 

If you want that 305 of mine you'll need to get it within a week or two, I'm movin in a couple weeks and need to have it gone.

 

Sorry been busy pretty much work then pass out... I know your prolly already gone but no I can't get it I don't have the money right now... And DC really? I say ohios too far... yea sure I'll be right there...

 

I haven't heard anything from you in quite a while and I had to have the engine gone yesterday so I gave it to a friend of mine at work that wanted to put it in his Geo Tracker, lol, that I want to see!
