350 swap for a 350 vortec

[Strongheart2012]

Anybody swap a standard 350 engine for a vortec version in an 95 Chevy taho 4x4?

Ive seen it swapped over and run a carb setup. Ive also seen people just using a set of vortec style heads on an older 350. My buddies 80s grand prix is running a vortec carb setup plus a ton of other work.

My plan is to build a 383 strocker motor with it but was just wondering if it wil just be a drop in or will I need to change computers or wiring harnesses

Best bang for buck right here. Ships with Vortec intake compatible heads, will bolt right up, your factory PCM will run it, and will give your truck over 400 HP.

You will need a custom tune FYI. That will cost you an addition 4-500 depending on where you go or live but after months of research, I've chosen this option for mine.

Don't forget to change the torque converter to accommodate the cam.
