today when i was going to get my new power steering belt from NAPA and on the way home i lost oil pressure and it stalled. i started it back up and limped into a parking lot. it had a little bit of oil pressure and wasnt makin noise so i drove home easy (2 miles) got in the driveway and it stalled again, started it back up and now its knocking. its not really a knock, but its got a nice loud rattling sound in the bottom end. RIP 305, time for a 350.

 

 

i think its the rod bearings. i cant afford a crate, so used will be the way to go. hopefully i can afford to get another vehicle because it was my daily driver, so unfortunately i might have to let the car go.

 

o noes!! well stick with us here on hte MCF, you'll still have a home here as a former Monte owner just like 'Space

 

LOL@ o noes!!!

ill stick around, but hopefully ill be asking for help with the motor swap, rather than whining about how much i miss the monte lol.

 

haha, NY is a LOOOoonnng way to help pull a motor, LoL

 

i meant advice lol

 

is it possible to put a ls1 in it? that would be relatively cheap only cause they are in alot of silverados and suburbans tahoes, firebirds, camaros and so on. if it can you could pick one up for cheap and posiible put a blower on it!!! could be sweeet!
yeah i have soem crazy ideas you could also pull a 5.3 and bore it to 5.7.. im always thinking...
it would be a sight to see if its possible

I have a completely rebuilt SBC 350 long block out of a 87 Camaro with fuel injection. It is all stock, bore, stroke, cam, etc; but has been rebuilt with a replacement crankshaft kit with .010 main and rod journals and Seal Power bearings. Also replaced were the piston rings (PC moly), timing gears and chain, Mellings HV oil pump with new screen and drive rod, all high quality parts, all new Felpro gaskets and seals. The cylinder heads were pressure tested, checked surface flatness, valves and guides redone. The engine has the oil pan, front TC cover, and valve covers on it with the harmonic balancer and flexplate attached. This engine had very low miles on it before the rebuild and will make a nice replacement for someone. For more info or pics email or call. [/align]Seller Phone Number: 352-596-2448
