I have a 350, 2 barrel out of a 1974 Century. I'm going to be rebuilding it for more power. Is there a good site on the internet where I can get info for this engine? I'm looking for bore, stroke, horsepower, etc. I've been looking, but come up unsuccessful.
Hello..(I didn't catch your name) There were two 1974 350-2bbl engines on the market: First one was the ZC code engine: bore and stroke: 3.80 x 3.85 HP: 150 @ 4200 rpm compression ratio: 8.5:1 The 2nd one was the ZP code engine: This one was for the Californian market All the figures seem to be the same as for the ZC engine? Maybe some modification at carb, intake or exhaust? Hope this is of any help?
Thanks for the info. About 10 years ago, I took the engine out of the Century & put it in my 1980 Firebird. It still runs great & has plenty of power, but I'm starting a full restoration/customization & I'd like to beef the engine up at the same time. Pat
