like every other camaro out there from the 80s and early 90s, it just would not be complete without a 350. Ive been waiting for this day since i bought the car 1 and 1/2 years ago and have all but a few misc. fittings for this swap. of course like any other car adding a bit of power, all of the supporting mods have been addressed in the trans and rear to handle the new motor. I know it may not be an ls based swap, no turbo for any other crazy power adder motor, but this is what the car needs, in my opinion, to make it fun. Im just glad I finally got the time to make this swap happen.
It all started as a 305 tbi with over 200,000 on the motor. it will continue to run as these motors never die, however, it also has no power whatsoever.
knowing what it began with, I decided to have a freshened up 350 waiting for it.
Now to the fun part. everything is labeled and prepped for removal.
I will follow with more pix in the morning. it is ready to be removed and everything will be bolted in immediately after that. Seeing as how this is my first swap, Im being very cautious and taking time with every bolt removed.

we now need to pull the motor again and replace the flexplate. not really upset about it because everything else has gone smooth to this point, but it is a bit of a set back.. will pull motor again in a bit.
