Pulled the engine out of my wrecked 84 Bird a couple weeks ago. It's a 300hp 350 gm performance crate (same short block and cam as the vortech 330hp 350).

 

Here's a couple pics of what the 84 looks like now







If you don't remember what it used to look like check out this thread

Pulling engine apart getting ready for new heads and cam

 

Hot Cam in and Trick Flow Heads on and engine repainted

 

I layed the stealth ram on the engine to see how it looks

 

OoooOOOoohhh... thats very purdyful !!

 

well damn.... what a great lookin motor you've got.





are your grille inserts in good shape? would you be willing to sell them if they are? I need both.

(sorry for the shameless plug).

 

I sure hope it runs as good as it looks. I still have to pull the motor and tranny out of my 87 T/A. But first I have to do valve seals on a 93 Formula with the LT1. I'm looking forward to that .

I'll check them out tonight and let you know.

 

may i ask how did you get all the paint off the block?

 

i had my block cleaned. it'll look new when you get it back, i promise.

 

I painted over the old paint. I was still in decent shape just dirty. I just used brake clean to clean the block before painting it.

 

I checked out the grill inserts and there both cracked.

 

crap. thanks anyway.
