pics of my 350

[mike123]

so i finaly got my 350 with the vortec heads(906 )










didnt get anypictures of the cyclenders it was wayy too dark but they look like there in perfect condition(could be wrong)
oh yea and does anyone have anyclue how much it would cost to get a block magnafluxed , when i bought it he said there was an issuse with the water mixing with the oil , came from an insurance company but then again i read somewhere that someone said they were crack prone? so i thought i might get it checked out

[ridge_runner]

sweet, you gonna paint it?

[mike123]

of course (orange was the chevy performance color wasnt it)

[68chevelle]

cool man. just ditch those heads and your good to go. thats just what i want to get my hands on for my next bild, except with the 062 heads. what are you planning for it?

[ridge_runner]

yea, i just painted mine hugger orange, and i painted the heads black, looks nice

[68chevelle]

i dunno about the orange. im a chevy guy, but orange is everywhere. i tend to prefer to be different. my block and heads are black and with the black engine compartment and the right about of silver and chrome i think it looks alot better than if it was orange.

it's kinda dirty

[ridge_runner]

yea i didnt go to crazy with the orange, just the block and the water pump, i think the orange black and chrome will stand out, i just painted my hole engine compartment with epoxy type scratch resistant paint, i painted it gloss black, turned out nice

[tacoma man]

my 5.0 in my rs is all black with chrome
valve pan covers.

[ridge_runner]

my other 350 is all black, i wanted something diff this time..

yeah those engines leaked coolant, not a big deal, thats the same reason i got my 99 tahoe engine, had an intake leak that collapsed the lifters and scored up some bearings, but the rest of the engine was solid. if the cylenders were screwed, youd know it, its pretty obvious when you have scuff marks or scoring. but like i told ya before, if you are running a mild cam, and just makin a street motor, those heads should be fine. just dont expect to make a street terror out of em.

[protouringparts]

I beg to differ. vortec heads have been rated up to 475 hp with a .550 lift roller cam and a Super victor intake, If I may say so, that IS a street terror enough to whip a Z06 and give a new viper a run for his money.

protouringparts, dont talk unless you know what your talking about. i dont mean to sounds like an ass but those heads were not stock. im guessing you probably read that im a mag. yes they can take them much lift but not stock. stock i think is like .470, corect me if im wrong 89irock. and by the way he was refering spacificaly to the 906 casting number because there were two different casting numbers for those heads. the 906, that suck, and the 062, the good ones, and im willing to bet the ones that were used on the engine your refering to were the 062 heads.

[68chevelle]

sorry about that, i read that now and it makes me seem like an ass. i didnt mean to i had a bad night.
