Well, unfortunately my old 350 TBI motor bit the dust today. It started knocking really badly while driving today and I don't want to risk it dying on me considering I drive pretty long distances regularly.
I want to replace it with another 350 TBI engine; nothing too crazy, and I'm ok with factory HP and torque numbers. This is my daily driver than I occasionally use to pull small trailers and drive on a farm with. However, this will be my first time ever pulling an engine out of a vehicle and I want to make sure I do this right.
I found this crate motor on JEGS: https://www.jegs.com/i/JEGS/059/8758/10002/-1
I know it's a re-manufactured engine and I don't expect it to be perfect, but I just need something that'll get me where I need to be reliably. Does anyone have experience with this motor?
Since I'm going to be pulling a bunch of stuff anyway, I also kind of want to switch to an electric fan setup. I plan on rebuilding the TBI unit since I'll be pulling it off anyway. I guess I'm basically here asking for any advice you guys have on pulling one of these engines and replacing it. Since I'm a young guy, I'm looking for all the help I can get and all of it is appreciated.
