I say rebuild. Nice set of heads, new cam, do it yourself and you know its done right. Mine had 149k on it, didn't even bore it out.
169k Donor Moror Question?
Just diassebled my 90 LX 5.0 Donor motor. The donor was purchased from the Original Female owner and stlii had the original clutch.I was delightly surprised when I was still able to see the Cross hatch marks in the cylinder bores.
The Cam & Crank and internals are perfect.
I'm having second thoughts with going with the 69' 351w for my build.
Question is "Should I just rebuild the donor short Block into a 331 stroker motor or do I just put in a 351w w 405hp from the Engine Factory?
