Got me my v8

[BlazinLow_inORE]

Well I finally landed myself a great deal. A complete 1969 4 bolt points 350 for 150$. and he drove it up to me(200 miles) for another 10$.... couldnt pass it up. Its in great condition... i am tearing it apart in a couple weeks when the weather gets better to see how the whole motor looks. Im tellin ya.... i am anxious to get this thing in my blazer for the summer. Ill post up picks and things on the swap.

as you all know...i currently picked up a 1969 350 out of a 69 3/4 ton chev pickup. Just wondering what all mods i would have to do to fit it in my 88 s10 blaze. I havebeen reading around and a lot of people are saying that i need to move the tranny back 1" and the radiator into the core to give room for the electric fans and pulleys. Cant i just put electric fans between the radiator and grille?... also.. if i use a airgap intake manifold will i hve problems with the hood clearance? Also.. i have been told that i will have to change my distrubutor to electric cuz there is no firewall clearance. any opinions? also... shortie or regular hedders?

any help will be greatly appreciated....

[Minitrucker4lyfe]

your going to need first off the shorty headers. I got away with leaving my radiator in the stock position and running 16" dual electric fans with no problem. I was using a electric ditributor so i'm not sure about that. i'm sure you know about buying the motor mount plates to move your motor mounts forward.

i did know about the mounts yes....
