Re: 305 to 350 question.

The engine will bolt in the same spot as the 305, question is are you going to keep it tbi? Switching to tpi or doing a carb conversion? All factors of how it has to have it wired in

Re: 305 to 350 question.

I'm going to do a 355 carb conversion in my 89, trying to figure out how I want my engine to be built still (first engine build for me) it all depends on what you are going to use it for, I think a carb conversion is an easy way to do it, but that my opion
