Re: V8 350 conversion in Progress

Well my configuration would be the same as the V6 as i will be using the same acc brackets jut like if it was a V6 262. Now my concern is wether my V6 W/P would do the job on a V8 block. unless i am missing something

Re: V6 to V8 swap water pump

Re: My sons 94 project

on your conversion to a V8, did you had to swap the rom chip from a V6 to a V8 to the original ECU of your Astro? mine will soon go under a new transplant to a V8 350 from a Suburban, just dying to have it done. :yawinkle:
