Ok, I appreciate all the help from everyone on my dilemma with my valve covers and electrical issues. I have a serious question, my Firebird is my daily driver right now, but I am looking for a small efficient pickup to drive to and from work in its place. I was thinking of picking up a 350 small block having it blueprinted and machined and rebuilding it with a 4 bbl carb to replace my 2.8 L v-6. The questions I have are 1) Will is bolt on to my 700R4 transmission or am I going to have to get a th350 shorttail for it? 2) Is the engine wiring that much different or can I use my existing wiring setup? 3) Will it actually be worth the effort?

Any suggestions would be appreciated

 

all your answers can be found in the stickies in the engine swap section

 

Thank you very much for your help Atilla
