my motor buildup
Hey all,
I have project going on right now, and Im curious on acouple things before I complete it.
How well will my fullly restored small block 350 run with a set of restored LB9 heads and the MAF TPI system fully restored and polished.
The block came from late 70s model vette, that doesnt matter but .. will I run into and major problems?
the heads were from a 89 T/A (my old one) which was a decently fast car till I parted it out.

and my C4 vette rims ..
P275s, 17 inch rim .. there big and pretty.
Im gunna polish em just like the Tuned Port up there.
I needed 4 adapters to even mount em, but theyll be worth it.
when I paint the car and have em on .. itll all be worth it

also
This has probally been mentioned 80 times before but..
I have an ECU calibrated for that LB9 engine, how will it drive the 350. I guess you can consider this 350 a L98. all roller
I know the 305 and the 350 are very similar, but diffrent in ways.
I dont have the equip to make my own, and i know better than to get a hypertech prom.
