Re: 350/290 Horse Crate Engine

Keep in mind, the original 350 was rated at 275 HP gross. So the 290 HP should be a pretty good upgrade over a tired stock engine.

I have found as long as you get 14 inches of vacuum or so at idle the brakes work fine. Any less you can add a vacuum reservoir and they still work good down to maybe 9 inches or so.
