    [iNice Job There & lookin Great!! Im going to ask a possible silly question as Ive noticed only 1 thing-?? The top radiator gose -is that a used one?? Where the clamb is located -it just looks like its soft or expanded as the clamp seems buried into the hose?/ just something an old mechanic's eye sees ?? Just seen many a hose that looks like that burst when the time was bad & place it happened worse! Looking great Though!! Happy Vannin

    The motor I ended up getting was a 1977 305 with 2000 miles on it last falll and came out of a 1965 corvette. The mechanic I bought it from said the guy brought in in to get more power out of his 350, and the mechanic told him it was a 305. So the vette owner had the mechanic put in a 350 Because he wanted more power and had just bought the vette a coulpe a weeks before and was told it was a freshly rebuilt 350, but it was a freashly rebuilt 305. The vette owner gave hime the motor and he sold it to me and said he had the oil pan of and valve covers and it was a freash rebuild and sold it to me for $450 with a 1 year unlimited milage garuntee.
