i lived in hervey bay for a bit. also why are you on here if your smashed? to get a 350, just go see the wreckers out along the road that takes you from urangun to the river heads turn off, they will help. or the wreckers out in the industrial estate near the go kart track. can you weld in engine mounts? etc and how much money do you have. also is a 350 the best engine for the price? you can get a newer 5 litre for dirt cheap, reliable, EFI, choice of gearboxes and easy conversion to do. just food for thaught. .................. or a 1UZ
