Guest timhypo Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 Anyone that's considering ANY engine swap should read the article on the Vortec-headed Goodwrench 350. I plan to follow their buildup specs exactly when swap time comes for me. Thanks for the link, Grumpy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pparaska Posted October 2, 2002 Share Posted October 2, 2002 Grumpy that was a good article, too bad they didn't put the prices in. I wouldn't believe them anyway (they always get Deals on everything). The 355 that makes 509 hp is nice, but that cam, etc. makes it hardly streetable, IMO. The 406 has a huge wide torque curve, and would be my choice, money not a question. I'm still jumping back and forth between a cheaper 355 or a 400+ build for my next build. The block is the biggest factor, as I don't see the pistons being a big deal. I'd settle for Hypereutectics if I wasn't needing to spray or boost it. It seems some feel a 400 crank with radiused fillets is ok at a 450 hp level - I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Anonymous Posted October 3, 2002 Share Posted October 3, 2002 Heres the full set of articles on the Goodwrench Quest. This is what I had intended to do with my goodwrench before I thought about turbocharging and the financial/marital feces hit the fan: http://www.aros.net/~rbuck/chp/Welcome.html Enjoy, Lone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
