    Chevy / GMC engine compairison

     



    Quick question,

    What was/is the difference between a 1970 Chevy 350 CI and a 1970 GMC 350 CI?

    What parts will swap.

    I have a 1970 GMC step-side/fender-side and the engine looks no different than a normal SBC.

    They are both GM, but so is Cadilac, Pontiac, Buick & Olds, but their engines are a complete different animal.

    TIA,

    Although GMC has used some strange motors in their trucks, including some Pontiac V8's, I'm thinkin' that the '70 GMC 350 is just another Chevy 350.

    I agree with Tech, in '70 they used a common engine across the lines for the 350's, samo, samo inside & out.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
