    What's the difference from a chevy v8-350 and a buick v8-350?
    besides one being a buick and the other a chevy :puzzled:

    Not being a smart ass, everything except for C.I. and both being produced and sold by GM. Bore (3.8" vs 4.001"), stroke (3.85" vs 3.48"), rod lengths, valve sizes and angles, on and on and on. Weight Buick 350: ~450 Chev 350: add a hundred lbs. Torque rating Buick 350: 410 lbs/ft @ 3200 Chev 350: 380 at 3200 (from '70 300 horse version).

    In other words, everything is different, nothing is the same, and NO parts interchange!

    Does that help?
