    305 to 454 Engine Swap?

    Ha, going the other way I'm replacing a shot 350 with a 302 that will be rebuilt at a restoration place walking distance from my house. The engine has a steel 2 port head with a Motorcraft carb, that as posted elsewhere I will be swapped for a new Weber 38-38. '87 2 wheel drive with manual trans.

    Help me understand 5.0 disparities

    I asked this question before, but this tread seems to be a good fit for my project square body 1987. I'm calling a classic restoration place here in Mexico City who probably has a rebuilt 305 with a 2 barrel steel intake manifold for sale with a Motorcraft carb adaptation. Jeep guys like that...

    2 barrel carb - barking up the wrong tree?

    From what I've read single plates are better for torque and not top end. Some racing classes only allow 2 barrels and Holly is the brand everyone uses.

    OK, my first post. '87 350 Suburban in Mexico. 4 Spd trans and Q-Jet. Tried a 2 barrel Motorcraft, but the "mechanic" broke it :-( I'm a fan of Weber carbs and am contemplating putting a 38/38 Outlaw with a single plane manifold. I don't want to spend a lot. Suggestions. I can't find one for a...
