easiest method is to pull the head and measuure the bore and check with the local machinist
An engine is a motor that converts thermal energy to mechanical work.
#1 is the cylinder closest to the front of the engine (where the belt is). On a V engine that is harder to tell unless you can see both heads at the same time.
The difference is in the injectors and engine computer. You can not tell by looking at the engine.
An engine "knock" will become more pronounced when engine is labored (climbing a hill) Valve noise will remain the same under stress
All 1976 Corvettes were 350ci. The engine numbers will tell you if it's a base engine, L48 or L82.
Searching: the engine searches for your criteria, and shows any result found. Filtering: the engine searches the same way, but excludes things you tell it to ignore.
PENIS!!!!!!!!
Set the motor to TDC, pull the #1 spark plug, put a small wooden dowl rod in the cylinder, rotate the engine and measure the stroke. 3.25" = 327, 3.48" = 350
Motor nerves tell muscles to contract, thereby making you move.
you are getting into the years where the 3400 received various upgrades, i believe the most major of which is the camshaft and valve timing. don't take it to the bank but i don't believe the swap will work without major work. don't ask a salvage yard because they will flat out tell you no. i have done motor swaps like these in the past and currently doing a motor swap for a Montana of the same year. i have used a motor from a 2001 grand am and swapped it into a 1997 venture with a few changeovers, the biggest being changing the injection rail and the coolant crossover pipes. hollander interchange told me that the swap i did above would not work period. i would check around on the internet to see the difference between the later model engine and the bad one you currently have. there is a difference but i cannot tell you if it was 03 or 04 that the motor received the upgrades. if the valve timing remains the same, compression is the same, if the core engine remains the same then the swap can be done.
engine # underGEN OR ALT STAND
u can listen to the engine
