Stock exhaust, I think I'll use it for now. Give me a little more room to play with.

Its interesting.. I like the texture of where the rust was better than the pure chrome!!

Too bad it takes like 20 years to make that kind of texture...

Andrew you will probably have to use an elecrtic pump depending on how you mount the alternator and water pump. BTW very nice find on the engine. And if you do use a electric pump put it up front.

Ok, First off, the pistons are standard GM pistons, the cross hatching on the cylinders tells me it has been bored at least once, but not worn much since, the black on teh camshaft tells me that it doesnt have that many miles on it40 to 50k, the block is for sure a factory 4 bolt main block so it is a 350, the numbers you were referring to mean the engine was made in 4 of 83, what year car did you say it was in? If you give me the number stamped on the front pad on the block in front of the head and behind the alternator, I can tell you what the engine was originally installed in and with what options ie: HP rating, transmission, with or without A/C and so on. Also give me the casting number off the head and I can see what that is also. If they are 305 heads, you got lucky, they have the smaller chambers for higher compression, mine are 55cc, stock they run 58cc. Mine have been modified with larger valves which made the chambers smaller. Anything I can do to help you get it up ad going, let me know.

Scott

Oh BTW, I worked for Chevrolet back in the 70's as an automatic transmission line mechanic.

Here is the fuel pump I am going to install. It was graciously donated by a club member. You cant run the stock fuel pump with the water pump or alternator mounted the way Renegade does.
