ZZ4 Crate Engine

 

I second that

 

Sell the car, then have $3500 total to buy a halfway decent 350 TPI.

If you've gotta fix it, fix it better than stock.

I would build me a 383 Power Stroker! Those are my plans for my 305 86 Camaro Z28. With all the goodies I am going to install I will kick some new sport car a$$. Count on it!

Livin' the Stereotype

 

First off,

I want to keep the TBI 'cause its reliable as hell and I want to retain a "stock" like car. The 383 stroker with about 450 hp is going in the 82'Z28 I'm about to buy anyway...

I would put $2000 of it in a savings account.

With the rest I would get some subframe connectors, strut tower brace and an aluminum driveshaft. Unless there is stuff that needs to be fixed already.
