Post Where to buy engine block?

How much and where can I get one, I heard you could get one at autozone and trade in your old one?

I am looking for a 350.

Depends on what you are looking for. If you want a bare block with no parts then you can get one from either the junk yard or get a Merlin block. The engines at AutoZone are in short or long block form and the require a rebuildable exchange or they will charge you a core and they are not high performance engines. Your best bet is to get an assembled one like the ones from GM (see PaceParts.com) Summit, Jeggs or have one built from your local engine shop. These are just a few sugestions but there are a lot more options out there and it all depends on how much money you want to spend and how fast you want to go.
