I just acquired a 98 350 motor to swap out my 305 in my 97 c1500. I don't know much about the motor except that vehicle that it was in was in a rollover and it has 160xxx miles on it. I am in California and am restricted by emmisions b.s. I dont want to have any future issue with the motor so I plan to send it to the machine shop and have them rebuild it in the next few days. I was quoted $2500-$3000. *ouch* . What upgrades can I do while I am tearing down the motor that will not affect the computer and will still pass smog?
I was thinking 20 to 30 over new pistions rings bearings freeze plugs and upgrade to bigger timing chain and bigger oil pump. Any other suggestions? Where can i find parts to save me some $$$$ from the shop ordering?
