I can get a used L98 or get a machine shop to rebuild me a 350. I have all the TPI stuff on my LB9 car right now. I will just need to get my better injectors and make a decision as far as baseplates, runners and heads go. What do you guys suggest. I know your getting tired of my post but gees this decision is killing me.

------------------
TPI 305,
Gutted airboxes,
gutted MAF,
K&N filters,
Corvette Servo.
14.9@93mph

"Speed kills, wanna live forever, drive a Ford."

 

Oh yeah the L98 has 82,000 miles on it and it would cost the same amount for either assuming i do a base rebuild (which won't happen) but still what would you guys say?

Build whichever gives you the most power.

does the L98 have the roller cam? I think some of the early L98's didnt have them

------------------
-80 Camaro 350, Carter AFB, headers, dual exh, ram air, all sorts of crap
-88 Iroc-Z 350tpi, 3.27 gears, 4 wheel disc, MSD 6a, tpi airfoil, k+n's, white gauges, accel coil, flowmaster, pretty quick

 

I think 85 was either the first year of the roller cam, or the last year of the flat tappet. Not completely sure on either case, but pretty sure. Of course, I may be confusing it with the year TPI was available.

 

87 is the first year for roller cams, and also the first year the L98 350 TPI was available in f-bodies. So all thirdgen 350's should be roller cams.
