Welcome aboard thirdgen.org.

What induction does the car have, carb or TPI?

There are plenty of good rebuild kit choices on summitracing.com, and I'm sure jegs.com.

Not sure what you mean by the horsepower question.

Re: 350 engine

86,

Hey there. What would your car be used for... daily driver... hot street... strip machine? Hope your trans is in good shape and that you matched up the torque converter to your build.

Welcome to the site. There is allot of useful information along with very experienced board members. If you do a search and/or post a question i'm sure you can find the solutions your looking for.

Rabi C.
