350 swap into 87 caprice
Me and friend are looking at swapping a 350 into our 87 caprice for its 305, I was just wondering how this would match up? Would the 350 drop right in and work with the same motor mounts and line up right with the tranny?

Would the stock caprice tranny handle a 350 with pretty decent power?

Stock caprice tranny would be either a t350 or 200-r4. Either way, chances are yes. However, the 200 is a bit weaker. Do you have OD?Right engine, Wrong Wheels

I tried rubber isolators between the frame and pump, but it made little difference. I don't mind spinning the motor over to refill the carb(s), it allows time to build oil pressure, jmho..
