Finally!
Hi All!
Just bought my 30 year dream 1970 coupe. Donnybrook green,black standard int. Originally 350-350 L46, not original motor now, 4 speed. O/A good condition. Motor was rebuilt 2 owners back, power's not what I was expecting though. The block is 75, intake 69, Q-Jet 71. Came with an extra Aluminum manifold GM 14057053 CFM 44 (for 80-88) & Holly 6210-1 carb. Would intake-carb swap give better power? Many more questions to come.
Thanks in advance!

I will have to agree with the others. Great year. Post pics and let us see what it looks like. There is a 1970 Corvette Registry ran by one of the members of this forum. She has been collecting info and has compiled quite a nice website about the 70 vette. The information has gotten to the point now that it is being used in the corvette black book. So, if you would not mind, submit your info to her and add to the information gathered.

Thanks, I've checked out the registry and will submit the info.
How do I post pictures?
2nd: The intake-carb I mentioned, will that make a noticable difference in the power?

To post pictures you need to get them on the web first. Try using Photobucket to upload your pics. Once you have your pics uploaded, you have to copy the IMG code beneath the picture you want to post and you paste it into the reply box on CF.
