Re: My lb9 mod list what is she going to run?
well guys transamws6 sent me some bad luck lol today my wife was driving the formula today and overheated the engine and cooked it with only 62,000 miles on it. My friend has a 350 out of a 86 iroc what would I have to do to make the swap work? could I use my 305 intake with out the cold start?
Sucks about cooking the engine in your car, told you to save some money for a tow truck

Unless your friend did an engine swap in that 86 iroc its not a 350. 87 was the first year with a 350 from the factory in a Thirdgen. In a tpi thirdgens vin# the 8th diget is a F for a 305 and an 8 for a 350 car.
