Terry's 1988 Camaro

At first this project started with just valve seals and head gaskets for a 2.8. As I got into it, it started looking expensive and I dont want to drop several hundred dollars into that pathetic thing.

I got hold of a 350 out of a 77 truck. I havnt picked it up yet so im not sure about the specific details except that it has about 80,000 miles on it.The 2.8 was fuel injected so im removing a lot to convert to a carberated setup. Im aware of the changes that need to be made such as a mechanical fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, etc. My k member has the hole pattern for a 350 and i believe the suspension and rear end are the same thats used in an IROC.

Ive herd 50/50 on using a world class T5 with a 350. I know theres bell housing that will match it up. If it turns out the motor is too much for the tranny ill swap it but Ive read about a lot of people who arent having any issues pairing the two up.

Heres some current progress and pics of the 2.8. Im in the process of sanding down the body for a single stage of paint, removing wires and anything unnecessary, as well as the motor itself obviously.
