I am picking up a complete 350 engine next weekend from a buddy (wanna say mid 80's 2 bolt/will let you know when run some #'s) and this is a complete pull out that was in his grandfarthers 72 c10. I wanna build a engine on a budget/smart shopping etc using factory block and a set of vortec heads (not sure best year). I would like to have decent but nothing crazy cam and be able to get least 300-350 at back wheels. This is a engine that will be going in a 1967 swb C10 for my soon to be wife so relieable would be nice and some what friendly on gas. I am not drag racing or anything just cruiser and maybe some pulling with it from time to time. So any ideas from you guys on a combo? I will put the engine together myself and do get discount at many part stores/dealerships, but this is a budget. Thanks for the advice ahead of time. Brandon
