I would like as much info as I can on the 350 that Chevy dumped into the 1985 corvette.

Thanks in advance.

Matt

Yes, but it's definately not the most desirable if you're going to keep it stock. It had junk iron heads, a 2 piece rear main seal, hydraulic cam and the 85 TPI electronics were unique to that year and quite primitive.

yeah later on I'm going to slap some nice heads and intake and I have the parts for the computer upgrade now. But I for now I'm just changing the vavle seals to put off upgrading for a little bit of time.
