engine
I need an engine for my 64 sb. Pace performance sells a 4 bolt 260hp 350 complete motor.A chevy crate block, no reman,with a th350 trans and torque converter with some other stuff. Does anyone have any info on these combos or on pace performance in general.My truck will be my daily driver, and I won't be doing any racing. I'm looking for smooth power and reasonable mileage. I will be using a 3:08 gear.

Re: engine
A friend of mine bought one of those a long time ago and he still beats the hell out of it to this day. He has a turbo350 and 308 gears and a quadrajet too. Not especially fast, (a late model Caravan beat us in a drag race once) but definitely a fine running motor. It could pull an old single axle camper trailer with no problems.

Re: engine
Pace performance has been around for quite some time and I have not heard any negative feedback about them. The 260hp crate engine should make for a nice driver. You might check into what the difference in cost would be for the 290hp crate engine. If I'm not mistaken, Jegs currently has a sale on those.

A few extra HP is never a bad thing.

Re: engine
Those engines were probably the best GM put in a truck. Alot of those engines are still on the road today. With a little maint 300,000 easy.
