That sucks

Found this on a website:

10243878 96-up 305 2-bolt Vortec Roller

If thats what it is then its got the 305TBI setup on a 305 vortec rebuilt block.

I am confused.

So are you sure it's a 305 or are you just assuming he was lying about the crate motor since the VIN said it came with a 305?

I had a 305 for 187K miles in my '01 and swapped in a 350. The VIN stayed the same.

He said it was rebuilt crate 350 with low mileage. The vin on the dash says the oem engine is a 305 not 350. The engine has GM 5.0L stamped on in the back above where the bellhousing bolts up at.

No telling how it ran then.I wonder if the older heads from an OBD1 engine would work on an OBD2 engine? wait,I worded that wrong,would a TBI intake fit on an OBD2 engine?

OK,so the heads didn't change,just the intake manifold...

You use TBI setup on a Vortec block but have to use TBI heads and TBI intake.

Sucks to hear that Dave.

Is there a chance it was a 305 that was made into a 350 or 355? (no idea if that's possible or not)

Yeah, my lil brother used to have a Monte Carlo with a 305. He had it rebuilt and bored out to almost a 350. And then he installed aluminum Corvette heads on it, and an Edelbrock intake with a Holley 650 carb.
