Drivetrain

The engine has been completely rebuilt.  Block, heads and all other parts were tanked and blasted down to bare clean metal and thoroughly tanked again.  Engine was assembled with Fel-Pro gaskets using proper lube and Pontiac torque specs.  The only exception are the head gaskets which are Victor-Reinz gaskets that are specific for the Pontiac 350 motor, rather than the Fel-Pro generic 400-455 gasket which leave a giant gap in your combustion chamber.

The "WN" coded block was taken .030 over and fitted with new Badger cast pistons mated to the reconditioned factory rods with new rod bolts/nuts. Crank is factory "N" crank that was tanked and polished.  Rear main seal is Viton seal, not rope.  New freeze plugs, Clevite cam bearings, Crane factory blueprint 068 camshaft and lifters, Crane push rods.

Crane points conversion kit installed. Brand new Powermaster vintage appearing alternator and a Vintage set of AC Delco plugs installed.
