Just for the record, we did not get the 350 combo approved. But who ever did, THANK YOU!

I owned an 86 that I bought near new from a family member that purchased it new and it WAS a 350. Having said that I do live in Canada and perhaps it was a Canada only thing. See! We really must be special. Wink wink nudge nudge

You were the first ones I thought of when I first discovered this combo. I wonder who it really was and why it took so long for one to surface?

With all due respect, I say closer to 3.00 under..
Takes about 375 hp to do it...
Seeing a decent 305 will make that......

Somebody plug in the values...Remember, .430 lift cam

You sure about that Jack? The $500 will pay for 1/2 the engine.
