Now I know the initial investment is closer to $1500-$2000, but once you are there the upgrade is so cheap and the donors are aplenty. These have been out there for 10 years now. The old school 350 just isn't as good, right?
He has a 700r so all he needs is the electric fan, a motor, and a fuel pump. The 5.3 won't be as high HP as a well built as 383, but the upgrades to a 5.3 such as heads and a cam are very impressive.
Is my logic wrong here?

theirs alot of parts he needs besides fuel pump, engine, and eletric fan.
thats the easy stuff.
