i agree on the price just depends on what kinda deals you can find.. roughly about 2000 to 3000 grand for that kinda engine swap..

 

about what I spent on my swap also...and that was buying junkyard parts!!!!!

 

hey rsguy,
check out Pep-Boys
they will let you borrow a engine puller and stand free of charge, so long as you pay for the cost of them, as deposit. You get all the $$ back after you return it.

 

Just a quick question, 1991tealRSt-topGuy, why are you spending $600 on a cam and lifters, and then using a $100 set of 305 heads?

 

here comes the 305 heads can be made to outflow vortecs story.............https://www.thirdgen.org/techbb2/sho...hreadid=117410

i may port/ polish the heads as described in the link above, or when $$$ allows, AFR's baby!
