since i'm not overly concerned with going monstrously fast ( i know i'd kill myself or lose my license within a year if i went for my original plan of an ls1/t56 combo), i can concentrate on reliability and fuel economy. even on the low end, i'd have about 10lb/hp, which is three times better than the power to weight on my current truck. ygm View image: /infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif i need to get over there more often! several of the big guys there are within an hour or two of me.Īs for the offer. i'm there as pauli, though almost all of my activity was last winter. Superdave: i thought you were one of the other hybridz'ers at ars! w00zy and i were trying to figure it out. that's somewhat out of the budget, though it is a projected victim vehicle, should i ever get finished. So, how much do you guys think this would cost? i'm somewhat fond of an all edelbrock performer setup, since from what i've seen they're reliable, efficient, and produce the sort of torque curve i'm looking for (strong from idle on up).Īlso, any favorite books on building an sbc? i realize it would probably be cheaper to pull one from a junkyard or get one in a crate (warranty is nice!), but we want to build the damn thing ourselves. I'm wondering how much it would cost (in terms of parts, since other than opportunity cost, labor is free, and tools aren't really factored into this) to end up with a 350 on an engine stand (so the cost of the engine stand would need to be included, since i don't exactly have one laying around). but that's beyond the scope of this thread. parallel to this, we're also hoping to build a mild 350 in my garage. this coming spring, a friend and i are hoping to take some automotive courses at the local community college. I've been meaning to post this for a while.
