88 IROC 350 TPI buildup
I got an 88 IROC with a tired 350 TPI...time for a rebuild. I plan on removing the engine and trans. 700R4 is gettin a rebuild and a shift kit. My questions lie in the 350 TPI. First off, I want to build up another 350, freshen up the block, bored, fresh crank, pistons etc. Could I take the TPI system and slap it on the other 350? From wat I understand, you need the heads (which are getting re-done). I dont want to butcher up the original numbers-matching block by boring it. And will i need to purchase higher end intake-runners, throttle body, etc to make up for the bore?Also, so I'm prepared, how hard is a 350 TPI removal and rebuild? Appreciate the replies, thanks TGO members.
