Is this a solid lifter engine? and, is the next option up, a 427? I'm thinking a true 350 horse engine should be plenty of motivation for this car (how much does it weigh?).
Thanks! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/

Hi Sam, this is a hydraulic lifter motor and <span style="font-weight: bold">the only 350ci </span>motor available on the 69 vette. Its rated at 350 and when built/tuned right is plenty of fun! Curb weight is about 3100lbs for the small block coupe. Next option would be a 427ci/390hp (4bbl).
Thanks,
Dan </div></div>
Actually there were two 350's offered in 1969; the L46 350 / 350 and the base 350/300 horse motor (don't know the code for it)
