My engine was originally a 1991 350 from a K2500 but has been bored 0.030 oversize and I am planning to build with a 383 rotating assembly (18cc dished pistons, 5.7" rods). The block was machined to clear the 383 rods. I am currently planning to use the original 350 (193 casting) heads (I know they do not flow well) with all the mounting holes available in the ends for accessory mounting. I anticipate using a short water pump but have not decided yet about engine driven fan or electric, either way I anticipate some form of shroud will be beneficial.
I did a 400 transplant into a 1992 Jeep Wrangler previously and am familiar with Alan Grove and March Performance but they offer a wide variety of accessory locations depending on the space in the vehicle so I am hoping to get some insight from those that have done it already what works best; thank you MNSmith and Achipmunk for your respective pictures.
