350(L98) to 305(LB9)

My L98 to LB9 swap is well underway, got the 350 pulled out of the GTA and the 305 is all zipped up and ready to go in tomorrow! Putting a standard heaterbox in there to help clearances.



Thats the old L98 (headers, ZZ4 cam, ported heads, ported intake, SLP runners, etc..)

The LB9 still needs to be painted so no pics yet.

If by a new home you mean the engine stand.

That low compression 305 is going to scream with a turbo on it.
