Only 61,000K

I changed the transmission to a 2004R about a decade ago. It likely has 150K on it. The rear end final drive gear was changed to a 3:08 from the 2:41 is had stock after the transmission swap. It was just too tall. I put the fuel injection on it about 15 years ago. Getting rid of the Rochester computer controlled carburetor was the smartest upgrade I did to it. Fuel injection is just so much better.

The 350 engine was only $1,700 delivered to my door. That is a brand new, not rebuilt, but new engine from GM that bolted in place. I can't even have the heads machined and rebuilt for the $1,700. I changed it over a long weekend for Thanksgiving and even had time to spend with family for Thanksgiving.

I have a little book that has everything I did to it listed. I can look it up easily.
