the block numbers are the same as they always been. you can look on the side or on the back. they will actually say 5.0 or 5.7 on them. but the 350 is the one with a 080 for the last three. thats the most common. or look for an R at the 8th digit in the vin if its in the truck still.

I would go ahead and replace the intake gasket if you use a vortec motor....if you are switching to carb then you would have to do that anyway.
the 350 blocks casting is 880. i built a 350 with a lt4 hot cam and a 2500 stall that bitch would run.

yea if i get this motor..im to go with a TPI set up with an edelbrock intake 24lb injectors..already have edel shortys/y pipe and 3.73 posi in it...the following mods would be a 2500 stall and edel TPI runners
this thing should be a torque monster with a tpi right guys?
thx for your help guys

not a big fan of the tpi. but it should feel better than a 305

why not just a good holley 750 and swap the intake out to a vortec-carb intake...like a rpm air gap or something.

the tpi is ok. but im not too sure on that "conversion" intake. its only rated to 5500. i would at least want 2500 to 6-6300.

ehh i kinda like the tpi(its not TOO bad)...but with 305 i can never spin the tires from a roll or anything even with 3.73s(it will chirp somtimes tho)...its actually boring to drive bc of that...i jus wanna go from a slow roll like 5mph mash the gas and spin those fukkers..its anoying...im hoping a 350 vortec tpi with a 2500 stall will be able to do that

yeah 880 casting number is on the both sides of the block between the freez out plugs, and on the driver side rear of the block on the pad that the trans attaches to.
they are 1pc rear seal, roller cam motors.
you will need a special vortec tpi lower intake. i think edelbrock makes them. they are like 450 bucks though.
you can pick up air gap intakes real cheap for around 50-100 used.
factory rated at 260hp, 325-350tq or something like that. stock they run real strong.
i have a vortec block in my chevelle. has a voodo roller cam in it. you can use lt1 cams just have to push the down pin in.
if you plan to cam the motor, you must cut the spring pockets and retainer guides as the factory config is only good to .450ish lift.
good luck.

Dude said "Why dont u go with a Holley and an AirGap instead of the TPI?"...then the other guy said "He would be SO much HAPPIER!"....How hard is that for you guys to understand????!!! And Napolean Dynamite says, "God, Idiots".
He would would be SO much HAPPIER with a Holley and an Airgap then he would be with TPI...As in he would make about 50 more horsepower above 5K.

the stock vortec computer will only rev to 5900
a tune port set up on these motors ( vortec )will torque almost like a BB or diesel but will suffer on the top end probally fall on its face about 4800
the lt1 intake should be a good all around intake for this also but it all depends what this is going in. if this is for a heavy vehicle, I'd stroke it with a hot cam 2500 stall with a lt1 intake or stealth ram.
