what engine is that? $5000 sounds awful expensive. I bought a NEW vortec 350 from Autocenter Inc. In Texas for $1750. I didn't come with intake or distributor etc. I thnk I'd look around a little more for a better price.

Ah, a 502, OK, that price isn't too bad with the Edelbrock setup. I put the vortec 350 (and considered the 502, but didn't want to buy a 4L80E trans, I'm sure the torque of a 502 would destroy a 4L60E trans) and the edelborock setup in my 93 and it runs like a top. I couldn't believe the difference the Vortec 350 made over the original 350. Its amazing what a good designed head can do (thats esentially all that is different from the original motor I had.) I actually took my truck to the Dragstrip just to see how good it ran. I clicked off a 14.79 @ I believe 90 MPH in the quarter. Thats pretty Damn good for a 4000lb truck. (I've embarassed a few Mustang owners Laughing out loud) Anyway, good choice with the 502 and the edelbrock setup. Keep us informed as to how it goes.

I forgot to mention, I put the Edelbrock MPFI setup in and not a carb. (Multi-Point Fuel Injection) I was pretty simple cause it connected directly to the factory wiring, and used the stock computer.
