    I need to rebuild my 1970 Buick Custom 350 2 bl. I am wanting to change it to a 4 bl carb. I have a cast iron intake and I will be getting a 4 bl carb Q-jet. Can you guys make any suggestions regarding master rebuild kits for the 350. I am on a limited budget and just want something thats reasonable. I have checked on the internet at several sites and my question is are all the engine kits made from the same company or are some better than others. Need Help!

    I did a lot of searching when i was doing my 350 last year. I bought my master kit from Flatlander Racing. They had the best price and I was impressed with the quality of the parts in the kit.
    Good Luck

    I Got My BBB Kit

    From PAW. (Performance Automovtive Warehouse). Reasonable pricing, brand-name parts and custom work done right, at least for me. Their ads are in all of the PrimeMedia publications (Hot Rod, Car Craft, Popular Hotrodding, etc.)

    messed up a bearing and the block is shot according to my auto shop teacher. I am looking for a new 350 block to rebuild.
