Pics of engine swap

I finally swapped out the 305 in my 83 z28 for a 350. Talk about some long hours and hard work. Here is the car with the old engine.

Thank you. I worked on tunning it all last night and I am still not happy with the way it runs.

It is a 350 .30 over. edelbrock 600 cfm electric chock carb. edelbrock performer intake. Crane cam...cant remember the specs. and 1.94, 1.50 heads. I will put new heads on later. maybe some 2.02's but money became an issue up towards the end. I installed a new clutch as well and it is mounted to a T-5. Hopefully somewhere around 300 horse at the flywheel, but that might be pushing it.
