  1. Hi guys, thanks for accepting me on the board. I have 71 Monte i purchased in September 18, and I've been enjoying it since. it has a 350/350 in it, and 10 bolt rear. I just had the trans gone through and an Eaton Posi and 3.73 gears put in the rear. My next move is going to be to the engine, and i know i have a lot of options so i am hoping to get a lot of input and stories from your own experiences. For this exercise we are going to pretend $$ is no option. Option 1: Find a 70-72 454 block, and have it machined and rebuilt to better than stock specs hopefully making 450-500 hp and even more torque on pump gas Option 2: Find a 350 block hopefully period correct and stroke it to 383 potentially aluminum heads making 425hp ish Option 3: Pull the 350 that's in it and do a good solid rebuild on it, boring if needed, refresh the heads get everything to good stock running order I know there's really endless configurations small block 400, big block 396, LS. I'm really open to most though not so much LS swap because i think its above my skill level and i prefer what i do to be mostly period correct. I would love to hear from you guys who pulled your stock 350's and went to something else what you liked, didn't like, anything you wished you did different, all in cost,. Thank you all in advance picture below is Big Rhonda
  2. Well guys bummer to my weekend. I put my engine back in and went to crank it and nothing happened. I was with my Monte all day from 8:00 am to 11:00 pm and I just said forget about it. I think I connected all the wiring. The only thing I noticed is that my left side headlight plug has been cut off. Someone needed one badly. I also noticed the plug for the transmission spark control switch is broken(What is the TSCS? Will it cause a no start?). My interior lights and radio comes on. No lights on outside of vehicle but I'm thinking it's because of the stolen plug but there are six or so wires that were cut. So I'm going to need the headlight plug for driver side and also the TSCS pigtail. Any help is really appreciated!! Thanks...... Rodney
