To fill you in I just bought the 'black betty' off my brother and now I'm wanting to do a 350 swap, and maybe even converting to a 383. As of right now she's pretty much stock, 4.3 TBI 5 speed manual; that is for now
I was wondering;
I've got a few goodies pick out for the build so far if you have any input give it to mee
And I'm still in the process for these:
After all said and done, my brother is worried about the suspension on the truck, should this be something I should upgrade before hand, or will I be okay with a 350?
If anyone could help with anything that I'v missed, skipping the obvious ones, hoses, mounts, muffler and what not it would be appreciated!
I was wondering;
as far as the stock tranny goes and putting in the 350, will it be okay, or should I think about looking for another tranny?
Also the guy I'm buying the 350 from has put new headers on, (was going into a El Camino) would I have to buy new headers to fit the chassy or will the ones he's got on work (Hooker Headers).
Rookie question maybe? Goes with the 350 I'm buying, he says and I quote "It's a fuel injected 4 barrel with Holley double pump carburetor" does this just mean it's carb, or fuel injected? Sooo confusing lol.

Hooker Headers smog
Exhaust system kit (Hooker)
And I'm still in the process for these:

Fuel pump?
Electric fan x 2
