    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    Going to start stripping this 350 down this evening and drop the heads off at the machine shop this week to see if they are salvageable. Will update once I decide exactly what direction I end up going with this.

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    Thanks everyone for confirming what I was thinking. Let me see what I can scrounge together and see what I can make out of it.

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    It kind of comes down to the fact that I (like a lot of us) have a ton of stuff laying around doing nothing.

    No interest in a 406 and it wouldn't be specifically for a square. I build lots of stuff so would be just for the fun of building it.

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    That's the exact point of this conversation. Have a complete 350 with good internals and a bad block. Have access to a 400 block so I'm just running the idea through my mind. Negligible difference in prepping that one vs another 350 block.

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    We posted at the same time concerning rod length. Wondering if it has ever been done with a standard 5.7" rod and a taller piston. Enjoying this conversation by the way. Hoping that I'm not the only person to walk through the garage, look at a pile of junk and say "wonder what I can do with...

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    I'm assuming that the 6" rod would allow the use of a standard height piston correct? Do some people build them with the standard 5.7" rod?

    Has anyone ever built a 377 Small Block?

    Kind of an intellectual exercise more than anything else at this point. But, has anyone here ever built a 377 CID Small Block, combining a 400 block with a 350 rotating assembly? From what I have read, the combination isn't as popular as it once was, especially with everyone building the...

    Latest Lost Cause Project: 1979 Z28

    Been a while since I posted an update. Took about a month off of the project for some travel and going back to work. Doing some little odds and ends at this point. Finally got around to getting the proper battery mount and some detail work around the intake.

    Replacing front brake lines - remove proportioning valve?

    Valid point. But after a year of not working on a vehicle, replacing it and making the job easier for the OP may be a good alternative.

    Replacing front brake lines - remove proportioning valve?

    Don't be afraid to remove it entirely if needed. In fact, I'd just suggest replacing it at this point if feasible, especially if it is original.

    Started running the new line to the rear today. Stainless line from "The Stop Shop" that I picked up at Summit yesterday. I've very pleased with the quality of this line so far.

    New hood on. I'll work on the gaps tomorrow. 2" AMD cowl induction hood.

    For my amateur radio friends, you know that my daughter and I had to stop in here while we were at Summit.
