I was looking through a CHP from a few months back and saw an ad for this; I missed it the 1st time.

YearOne Online Shopping

edit: the direct link doesn't work. Follow the above link, then search for "CT350PC1"

Here's the short list:

$2999 (till December 31st)
350
Ported Vortec heads
520 lift, 218/228 duration cam
12" vacuum @ 800 rpm
400+ hp, 440+ lb/ft torque (with a carb)
12 month, 12,000 mile warranty

That is an unbelievable price, and it would sure seem to be a TBI-friendly motor.

The webpage doesn't give as much detail as I'd like. I called, but the guy I know at Year One had left for the day. I'll call him tomorrow to find out more. Here are my questions for him:

2.02int./1.6ex. valves in Vortec heads?

What porting?

Flow numbers on port job?

What carb made that power? Ignition?

See sample dyno sheet?

What crank?

What rods?

What fasteners?

Full cam specs

Which rocker arms?

Which springs?

Oil pan fit 3rd gen?

Warranty details?

Will swapping to TBI void warranty?

Does warranty period start upon purchase or upon installation?

What do y'all think? Are there any more questions I need to ask?

 

There was a thread about this engine in the Engine Swap forum, awhile back:

Sounds like a great deal. I originally didn't think it would be TBI friendly, but now with the EBL, it could be a great combo.
