I don't know if it has been posted before but I found this site the other nite. The prices seem don't seem bad for some of the combos ( 350 TBI engines). Amyone know anything about them I see a lot of the parts may be rebuilt.
350 TBI stage 2

Not very exciting for the price. 76cc combustion chambers and 9.0 compression aren't too hot. You can get a much better deal.

I KNOW for a fact that they won't get those numbers without alot of head work and alot of custom prom tuning.
I would look at a NEW GM stock replacement 350 Vortec engine and cam it with a ZZ4 or LT4 Hotcam before those.

Thanks guys I appreciate the input I am looking for a new motor, want it to be tbi friendly (Easily tubable w/ roller cam). I am looking for something around 300 - 350 FWHP and in the 375 - 400ft/lb torque range. I am hoping to get this for under $2600. Basically looking for something that is a straight forward swap and is easily tunable because I am probabbly going to be taking this project on myself ( along with some guidance from a friend who is more experienced). I don't have to worry about emmisions testing or inspections.
Any and all suggestions welcome
