Here's the original heart that my C/10 Zooey had when she was built. She had 190,000 when I pulled it out. Now that ol' 307 small block sits in the back of the tractor shed waiting to go in a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu. And my Parts truck a 1969 Chevrolet C/20 had a 350 with an oil bath air cleaner it's still on the truck frame out back of my shop I duck taped all the holes and there's a 2 inch locust tree growing up right beside the transmission ( I really need to cut it down and remove the engine someday lol)

350 crate engine from West Coast Engines. 400 HP at the flywheel, blueprint / balanced.

Greasey Harley · 12-08-2021, 12:57 AM

Nothing special, but I try to keep it properly maintained.

**tim71** · 12-08-2021, 01:40 AM

mostly original in appearance, with one major exception...

**Richard** · 12-08-2021, 05:36 AM

The slightly modded LSA that will power my 72.

Happy_dan · 12-08-2021, 07:47 AM

This has become a porn site! WOW. Great pictures and projects

**Dieselwrencher** · 12-08-2021, 09:28 AM

Slightly modified 292 with extra air filtration in my 72 Longhorn.

**old51sedan** · 12-08-2021, 09:58 AM

Just finishing up my 292, thought someone might enjoy it.

67C10Step · 12-08-2021, 10:33 AM

How about an ugly (but original) little 283? This is after install of the HEI and a cleanup/repaint on the valve covers when I put new gaskets on them. I have scrubbed the firewall down some since this photo was taken and converted the old oil bath breather to paper element as well.

geunther · 12-08-2021, 10:44 AM

The original sitting in there. I was going to say stuffed in there but Ill leave that description for the BBC crew.

Looking good. Nothing is jumping out at me, what is the major exception?

jaros44sr · 12-08-2021, 10:53 AM

This all started with a pulled rocker stud

Then morphed into Vortex heads TPI and CNP

Underside of hood. It was black from the factory. I debated whether to leave it black, but decided on body color. Just my opinion, the underside being body color looks much better.

Gotcha. I always have a hard time with those types of things. Mine is body color and original : )

Must have a rod knock and jetted too rich

**Smitty** · 12-08-2021, 01:34 PM

Here's my new crate motor.

countr · 12-08-2021, 02:24 PM

A little dirty but here is my 292
thanks Russ

**pjmoreland** · 12-08-2021, 04:30 PM

Here's an L31 Vortec engine I'm rebuilding. Pulled it from a 97 Tahoe at Pick-n-Pull with 130k miles. Aiming for 9.7:1 static compression and .040" quench. Going with an XR276HR roller cam and beehive valve springs with thread-in rocker studs. The head gaskets are back-ordered until late January, so it's just sitting there in my garage waiting patiently.

custom10nut · 12-08-2021, 04:38 PM

Here’s mine.
It ain’t as sexy and shiny as some, but I rebuilt it myself, and it runs like a top.
Sorry for the sideways pic
