![]() ![]() ![]() This engine was a monster in it's day!!!! The LT-1 engine had 370 gross hp (gross-engine being tested for output without accessories) It was an improvement of the 350-350 engine by using a more radical cam, transistorized ignition, 850cfm carbĪ high rise intake along with solid lifters. In my opinion 1970 was the peak year for the small block engine. What would it take for a wimpy ol' 73 small block to act like a late 60's small block?[/QUOTE But what was really done, and can those changes be reverse-engineered? Or would it be smarter/cheaper to just start fresh with a new crate engine with more HP? Basically the same engine but with different mods to reduce HP and I'm guessing reduce smog. I've wondered much the same thing, but on a broader scale:įrom 68-73 (the last year I care about, since I own a 73!) the 350 engine went thru HP reductions each year. ![]()
