I need a 2 bolt main 350 for my 1986 iroc. i was wondering if anyone knew a good place to find one. i want a new one that will bolt up in my 86 without any motor mount work. any help would be awesome. thanks guys...

 

Any 350 will bolt right up. Are you looking for a short block or long block ?

 

well im looking for a short block, i just need to know a good place to find a 350 short block assembly, thats a 2 bolt main for about $1,500.

 

Do you want a new/rebuilt block, or will a used one work?

 

im looking for a new one but a used one will work.

 

There are listings on this board for used parts, you'll see a lot of 350s and 355s on there.

www.craigslist.com might have something more local for you, depending on where you live. Usually used.

There are a whole host of aftermarket companies that offer new shortblocks and longblocks. Summit, Jeg's and GMPP are a few, off the top of my head, that have websites and whatnot that you can check out.

i need a 2 bolt main tho

 

Why do you need a 2 bolt? Or do you mean 2 piece rear main seal?

 

I have a 2 bolt main, late model 1 piece main, balanced, forged, 363 stroker, complete short block. Also have a used complete 4 bolt 350 on an engine stand. PM if interested.

 

4 bolt mains (stock style) are usually thought of as being superior to 2 bolts, at least to the average garage Joe. Unless you're thinking of drilling for angled 4 bolts later, in which case you'd probably want to custom build your short block with the right forged pistons and all that from the start...

 

There is no such thing as "needing" a 2 bolt main, unless you plan on replacing the main caps with splayed 4-bolt main caps. And, unless you're planning some serious power, there is no need to plan on that.

 

Guys, I think he's just looking for a reman engine. Like THIS.
Edit: oops. that's a 305. but you get what I mean....
