I have some spare time, money, and garage space on my hands and want to build myself an engine. What I want to find is a tried and true engine combination. I want to stay with a 350 and TPI induction that makes approximetly 375+ horses (if possible)......

What I need help with is i guess some sort of a build sheet. Exactly what combo would work good together...In other words what heads, valves, pushrods, crank, cam...so on and so forth. Is there anywhere I can find this info...a book, website, or can someone post their buildsheet. Thanks.


p.s......in orther words...my dads a retired diesel mechanic..he can help... and I know how to assemble an engine....I just dont know what works with what. Thanks

 

I was thinking of asking the same question so i will be interested in peoples replies. I want to built a 350ci motor with TPI intake and would be interested in a list of what parts people have used and what results they have got.

 

yeah if you do a search theres a lot of people who have posted their combonaations along with results but none have listed a build sheet. In other words....what piston size they went with, what pushrod length, what valve size....I kinda need it pretty specific...I will even pay for the right info.

 

My new engine build made 305rwhp/340rwtq on the dynojet. I run an automatic trans, so figuring 20% loss is 381 flywheel hp. Here is my build.

L98 350 bored .030 (355ci)
Cast crank, stock rods, speedpro forged pistons (flattop)
AFR Street Eliminator 180cc heads (65cc chamber)
9.6:1 static compression ratio (could have gone much higher, but wanted to stay boost friendly for future mods)
Comp Cams XR-276 HR12 camshaft (on the comp camps website do a spec-card search for 08-503-8 for the specs)
Ported/siamesed plenum, ported SLP runners, ported stock base. Plenum, runners, base port-matched
Stock 48mm Throttlebody w/airfoil
30lb/hr injectors
MAC 1 5/8" headers, Mufflex 4" exhaust
Dyno tuning


With a ported aftermarket base and higher compression you could see another 25-40rwhp, taking you well over the 400 flywheel hp mark.
