I'd like to pull the engine out and get it redone as a 383. I feel like 255 HP / 330 TQ or whatever the Vortec 350's were rated for will be a little less than I want for it. I don't know the history of this truck, other than it was a fleet truck for a rural cable company for a large part of it's life. It runs, clean oil, sounds fairly healthy (can't really tell if it ticks or anything because it has no exhaust at the moment). The truck currently has a stock 5.7L 元1 Vortec 350 with 260K KMs on it (162,500 Mi). Now it starts/runs/drives (fuel pump was shot). I bought a parts truck for $400 and got a driveshaft, all the exhaust, and a new fuel tank + pump. It's catalytic converters and drive shaft had been stolen, and it was listed as "possible engine damage" since it wouldn't start. I bought this truck for $1000 at an insurance auction.
