Engine update
good at all, I have a doubt whether the great experts there can guide me ..
It is difficult to draw a 350 L-48 engine of 190 hp corvette overcome the barrier of 400 hp.
It is a question I have, since you have the good fortune that the pieces are there, here in Spain we have to order parts, and the bill is increased by 20 to 30%.
Y.. what price would amount to update the engine to reach that figure ...
Thanks in advance.

I would look for used heads probably from this forum. Your going to need some good new flat top pistons. A cam that is matched to head, intake and carb. The actual cost is diffucult to predict I can give You numbers but I find by the time a motor is put together and running, I usually have double what I expected to do it. Good luck and being in Canada I know some of the extra costs You will encounter as We get them here as well
