Hello again everyone, figured I’d start a build thread so that way hopefully some one can benefit from my mistakes/success’! I’m still in the tear down phase so you guys haven’t missed much. Finally blew up the 350 a month or so ago (Blew a fist sized hole in the block and sent shrapnel through the oil pan 🤣🤣)and decided to spend the rest of this year and winter showing the car the TLC it deserves. Here are my plans
Blueprint SBC 400 crate engine
Th-350 is getting dropped off to local race shop this week
Frame being completely redone and boxed. Still on the fence about notching it
Suspension all new everything
All new lines for everything (brake, fuel, air)
Re-wiring car from front to back, this scares me the most.
I have a 8.5 gm rear end that I think I’m going to let be for now besides paint, someone has gotten into it before ( Or at least put a fancy perfect launch cover on it)
Disc conversion in the rear
Some interior work but not much car is already a 8 out of 10 in my opinion
So, add in the other 20 things I’m going to decide to do along the way that I haven’t thought of yet and that’s the plan haha.
