what would i need to do this??should everything be just like a chevy 350 basically??thanks alot.

 

no, you will need to get a adapter kit from jim butler perfromance, also a trans adapter plate, other then that a little rewireing and its a bolt-in.

 

yea i was wondering what diff wiring i would have to do??also,would a chevy 700r-4 tranny bolt up no problem???thanks

 

really with the engine its just the alternator location, starter and other little things, mostly just extenting a few wires and what not, not too bad of a challenge, you will need a trans adapter plate, but i do have one if your interested, a TCI unit (best one) used for 2 weeks like new, you can have it including shipping for 50$, let me know if you want it.

 

200R4 will bolt up to the poncho's. i dont know if the length is different compared to a 700 though. exhaust, i dont have any idea.

The length of the 200-4r trans is different, although I cant remember if its shorter or longer... I'm thinking its longer.

As for the 350 Poncho, I really wouldnt waste time with that swap. By the time you get all the adapters, make the various little parts work and such, you will still only have a 350, and a heavy one at that. Not to mention the extra cost involved for the parts to do the swap. The 350 chevy is a bolt in and doesnt weigh as much, it will end up costing you less and it wont be any hassle.

 

well c the problem i have is this,i have 3 camaros,i had a 2.8 in it,and thats what i wanted to put this engine in,just b/c i have it sittin here,but i also have a 350 chevy,i am rebuildin, however,i also have a s-10,2wd and short bed,i want to drop a 350 in,but i figured the chevy would be easier to put in,but i dunno,would anyone want to trade chevy 350 for our my pontiac 350??it has a 4 bbl intake and all on it,just rebuilt,however will need to put new gaskets and seals insince it was never put into ne thing when it was rebuilt.thanks alot for all ur time.

 

a 4bb poncho 350? does it have 6X heads? if so, then you have 350 HO, a rare motor, keep, DO NOT get rid of it, unless the price is right.those motors have a smaller bore than a 400, but use the 400 heads. Because of the valve size, the bores are notched to fit.

76' 350 4bbl had the 6x-4 head which was a smogger head, but flowed outstandingly, thats not a 350 HO they were used ONLY on 68-69 tempest customs and firebirds with the 350 HO option which had #18 or #48 heads, both are EXTREAMLY rare.

 

also you can check to see if it is really a 350 by looking on the block on the driver's side on the engine by the motor mount will be cast right into it eather "350" "400" or "455" if its a 2bbl engine then most likely its a 350, but if its 4bbl you might have a nice piece there
