Hey guys! I just dropped a newly rebuilt 350 in my chevy pick up. Now I have my old 350 2 bolt main block in my garage. Could anybody tell me what combination of carb, intake, exhaust, cam and heads I should put to get around 400hp. That engine is gonna be a project and I'm gonna use it in my c/k 1500 to do some mud competition. It's gonna be a long term project so even if the parts aren't the cheapest ones it's not a big big deal. Thx a lot!

The main key to success in any build is a consideration for a combo.What do I mean by that??.Well if it is a automatic what is the stall speed,what rear end ratio are you planning for,what is the wt of the vehicle,what is the wheel size??.Knowing that in advance,you then build for peak torque at a rpm,peak hp at a rpm with a cam,heads,etc.What do you intend to do with the vehicle??.Mud racing only??.Kind of doing your home work in advance having one part of the build compliment the other part.
Thx a lot guys that info makes a lot of sens. I'm gonna figure out what I'm gonna need for my application and then I'll get back to you guys. For sure the truck will be used mostly for trail and mud ridding. And maybe a little showin off in the city... Hehe. So thx again and you'll hear from me soon.
