zz4 crate motor

Ok, I just sold my supercharger setup to a guy for his truck for $2500. I was wondering how much time and what i'd have to replace or aquire to drop in a zz4 350 crate motor or any other rebuilt 350 i can find on ebay motors with a written warantee of what is on the engine and its performance. Most likely, im getting the zz4 crate. Does anyone have the answers? Thanks

a zz4 to my understaning should drop right in using the existing motor mounts. the zz4 is carborated though....i think...and it sounds like to me you have fuel injected so you might need to do some wiring/computer changes or altering.

Have you tried a search? It is a regular 350, it will fit with no problems. You will need to switch everything to fi if you want to keep it that way. Do a search and then see if you need more help. good luck
