New block, in the geo. Yes its been in their since saturday
Got my heads last night!

Well due to the fact I might get different parts the heads I have now are for sale. Jeff said that they are fine and all the valves look good. They just need to be rebuilt then they are perfect. Also, I might not be doing a three fifty anymore.

Stay tuned!

Re: ~Project~ Trickity Tree Fiddy

Just out of curiosity, why are you going with a 327? Is the new block you're getting a 305 block?

I believe its a 350 block actually. I was told that a 327 block and 350 block are the same thing. But I always wanted to do a 327 before I did a 350. Now that I know I can get the parts I went with a 327.

Re: ~Project~ Trickity Tree Fiddy

Only difference between 327 & 350 is the crank. 305/350 share cranks, 327/350 share blocks.

Good luck!

You mean you can't just add the 350, and stack the HP numbers?
