Oh man, owned badly.

That sucks nuts man. I had to do the intake on the Alero and After I got the lower off I made sure to place towels in there to keep anything from falling in.

well i did that, but i didnt cover the valleys, but i didnt think it mattered.. but if you read more of the thread, i scored a 350v8 and a turbo 350 for $200 :)

Man, I don't even know if I would call it a sad day. Frustrating, yes, but sad, well, a 350 and tranny for $200 makes up for it :)

I agree... the only set back is that you have some work to do and even then my cuz did a 350 swap on his old S10 by himself... said it was no prob

350 swaps aint to bad. i would look and see if you can find a turbo 350 trans i think the 4L60E Bolts up but im not positive

I would have to ask my cuz how he did it... I think he was able to bolt right on up with his 350... but i think he might have changed the motor mounts out

the things i do know are that i do need new motor mounts, and some headers for clearance.. and yes the the stock 4l60e will bolt up, but for $200 it came with the 350 and the turbo 350 tranny.. from what ive been told the 4l60e would handle a mild 350, but i may aswell use the turbo 350 that comes with it.

I guess youre going carbed?

If so, youre going to need to change the sending unit to the external pump design.
