If you would have listened to the people in the thread, you dont need a TPI specfic 350. You just need to get any old 350 block with pistons, and 86+ heads. Whatever the year is, im not sure. You are going to pay a lot more for a complete tpi 350 that you dont even need. All you need to do is switch to the 350 injectors and 350 ECU. The accessories will all bolt up. Then you wont need to mess with the wiring or anything like that. And what are you goals for this project? Youve said summer project, winter project, now your back to the summer. Make sure you dont need the car for a few weeks when you start. Stuff will happen that you cant plan for. Any why not a 383? The only different part is the crank and rods. If you need a new crank its not worth it to not do it. It doesnt look different on the outside. And you already have different parts on the car trying to keep it looking like its an 87 beyond that is kind of silly. If you want an LT1 go with that if not, dont worry about it. And choosing a motor because it looks cool is just...well a weird reason.
