I have (I think) an LM1 350 out of a 76 Pickup truck. It is a 4bbl. it has been bored .030 over and has a "moderate" cam... no one can tell me what the specs on the cam are....

any idea what hp it might be making???

or at least the hp it was stock???

and if anyone knows a good bank of this info, let me know
thanks

Cody

 

170hp @ 3800rpm/270lbs torque

 

I think you should start buying aftermarket stuff and breath some life into that thing!!

 

270 lb ft of torque???

dag on.... thats quite a jump from my 305... hahaha

well, its bored and cammed now.... at income tax im gonna work on some heads, maybe some headers too....

need new carb and intake too... but they may have to wait a while...

i'm excited

 

That's not too much different from yerbasic 305. That 350 was one of the ones that was such a disgrace to the small block. It would probably lose a race to a L03 or a later LG4.

It needs heads desperately, has either 882s or 624s on it if they're still the originals, pure garbage in either case; if it has the stock pistons or ones that match them, they're dished, so they need to go in the trash too. Intake and carb are a waste of money until you deal with the actual issues that the motor has. Those are typical un-bolt and re-bolt big shiny things that sit on top of the motor where everybody can see them monkey-spank that will not make the car any faster except by weight loss, by lightening the owner's wallet.
