Hey everyone.

My name is Jon, and I recently got ahold of an 82 El Camino. I have decided to replace the engine, and am looking for suggestions on what to use.

Thanks.

jon, it all comes down to one decision u gotta make. do u want fuel economy, or do u want power?

I'm going for power. I'm just hoping there is a way to get a good ammount without making the car undrivable. My uncle has recommended a smallblock 350 with a new cam and manifold. Just looking around for other opinions.

that combo plus a dual exhaust sounds good

hey!

my 305 was pretty reliable but it was way low in the power department lol. How mechanically inclined are you? you have a world of options with chevy small blocks ever thought of a stroker?
