Hi im newer to the these forums and I am looking to build a 500 rwhp Monte Carlo. I am planning on using the 350s out of these cars and want to be able to run the motor on 93 octane. The motor will be carb'd. I understand engines well and have had my fair share of LT1s that I have built but they were all fuel injected so im looking for some help on building a 350 with a carb out of a monte carlo. Thanks ! and I hope this is the correct spot for this thread. The car will be a weekend driver meant to be beaten alot. Would also like a little bit of reliability if possible. I am also curious on how much the parts will cost and what parts I should run.

I would go with supercharging of some kind of horsepower. I have a 500 HP plus 377 supercharged small block chevy in my 1979 Z-28 RS Camaro.Its quite street able as well

A 350sbc at 600hp at the flywheel, l guess your stroking it, big cam an really good heads. Say ouch!

Agreed. A power goal of 500 rwhp with an old school SBC is possible but not without a radical cam and/or some more cubes with high revs.

You would be better off going junkyard LS 5.3 with a cheap turbo. Less money and more power.

SBC isn't my skill set, l'm a BBC guy. Put alot will depend on your piston, otherwise its guessing.

What year is the SBC?
Well I wanted to use the sbc 350 that came out of the SS but at this point I just want a block that'll drop right in and work out. Any suggestions on the block and that parts with it? im guessing im gonna have to be around 10/11 to 1 cr to make this work on 93
