actually if youve read the thread, you'd realize that i said that i agree that i could get the heads off another car, BUT!!!! this car is my daily driver, i cannot afford a truck, honda, toyota, or even a ****ing GEO...i have to build something, thentake time off work to put it in. that is why im looking for a complete engine, preferably a 350 so thati dont have to spend 500 on a 305, then hunt down 350 heads for another 150-200 just to take the old 305 heads and throw them out...i dont see how this is so hard for people to concieve
you dont take your house with all of your furniture inside and say 'screw it, i want a new house!' demolish the thing and then wait for a year or two for a new one to be built while you live in the abandoned lot!
and again, i'll state what i said above so people dont have to argue back at me....
350 tpi= less work then going out to get a 305, then 350 heads, then the distributor off a 72 datsun, then get the crankshaft from a 02 toyota, then get some silly puddy and make myself a damn exhaust system!
and yeah, im sure you guys know what youre doing, im sure that you guys have plenty of experience/time to work on a project motor, i dont, and i dont have any experience short of doing valve seals in my car, my father has a lot of experience but he's not always around to help.
thanks for those of you who tried to answer my questions rather than just stating the way YOU would build an engine on YOUR time
