bore and stroke a chevy 400 smallblock.
the big block will bolt right to the small block motor mounts but they do make big block motor mounts that you can buy and install on the 66, it lets the engine sit a little lower and further to the drivers side.
NO. Not even close.
If it is a V8 it will be a 4.6L motor, it is niether it is a modular engine and they are not classified in the usual big block, small block engine sizes. It is just it.
small block and big block motor mounts are the same, so you should be able to take V8 motor mounts from most any Chevy engine bay.
change the motor mounts and get the computer and wiring harness out of the donor car that the small block came out of.
The small plugs, on both sides of the engine block, at the rear edge of the motor mounts. A pita to drain. You have to remove the motor mounts.
no
big block to small block. you change the engine mounts position and possibly the trans. but yes.
They dont make a 350 big block.The big block starts at 400. Wrong! 400 is still a smallblock. Big block Chevys start at 396, but does not include the 400, which the heads/crank and starter/etc. fit on the 350/305 etc.
It depends on what year it was made, and what it was installed in. Chevrolet never made a high performance 400 small block. They used the 396/402 for high performance applications. The small block 400 was typically installed in heavy cars like station wagons.
Yes - mine originally had a small block 350 and now has a big block 454. Isn't that difficult, with a few modifications of course (engine mounts, front springs, etc) *Skylla*
