Engine Rebuild
hi, i have a '93 gt conv.,auto, with 102k, time to pull and rebuild. i would like to be around 350HP when complete. What would you guy's suggest as far as crank, cam, heads, intake, etc., to reach this HP? I want this car to be a weekend cruiser, and feed it camaro's and vette's!!! just trying to get some ideas. thanks.

You're not going to be feeding anything to any car with an LT1 with an automaic convertible. You either need a new drivetrain or a big power adder.
Now to answer your question.... Crank and rods: Use what you've got, get them machined. Pistons: get forged aluminum pistons (Arias, TRW, SRP, all are good) Heads: AFR 165 or Trick Flow TW's both good heads Exhaust: Makes little to no difference. Longtubes sound good. Bearings: Clevite Rings: Federal Mogul Gaskets: Mr. gasket or Felpro (90 dollars or so for a kit) A one piece rear main seal is a MUST lets see, what else... go ahead and spend 100 on a new set of lifters, and you will definitely want 1.6 or 1.7 roller rockers, depending on if you stay with the automatic, what you want from the car overall, etc. All other stuff is reusable, have fun.
