The only good that will come of this is the fact that I have a 350 that I was planning on putting in anyway, I wanted to get another year out of the 305 while I built up the 350 I guess I'm not gonna get that chance now.

What exactly did you do to it to have this happen? Are you telling me this happened to a complete stock engine with no modification? Is that normal wear and tear? How many miles?

Well I bought the car one day engine died the next. *the guy I bought it from told me before I bought it that the engine was on it's way out so it was no suprise. But anyway the car originally came with a 2.8 but the guy swapped in a 305 from a caprice cop car so *** only knows how many miles were on the thing. I never had time to even get to drive the engine hard, but as stated before now I have to begin work on the 350 to get that working..
