Thread: Need some opinions on SBC 350

Tweet

I'm new to this forum and I am looking for some opinions. I have an opportunity to purchase an engine for a good price but was wondering if it would be too much power for a daily driver. It is a SBC 350 it makes 366hp at 5000rpm and 412ftlbs torque at 3500rpm. 11:1 compression, comp cams XE268H. I would be putting it in a 78 2wd blazer that I drive to and from work with the occasional trip on the highway. Fuel consumption is not a concern just drivability. I would appreciate any opinions. Thanks in advance.

I agree with tech, c.r. a little high for pump gas, might need to run octane booster, I ran thier 270s and had no brake problems, as for to much power......you're not even close to that.
