Classic Hot Rod
What is the best year of the 350s to find to build a nice street motor out of?
Im wanting to build a "bullet-proof" 300-400 horsepower chevy small block 350. What is the best year of the 350s to build my motor out of? Is a 4 bolt main necessary to build maximum horsepower? what is a good lift and duration cam to choose for the classic hot-rod "groundpoundin" sound but to produce great low to mid range power?
Anyone who can help answer my questions please do Thank you
I would start with a 350cid 2 bolt main and convert it to a 4 bolt main. This way you can splay the out side main bolts for maximum strength.
I have done this with our IHRA car. It run 10's and has about 480HP.
Cams our up to you for what your looking for. 400TH trans for strength as we use 350TH and kept braking them! with the 400TH we actually went faster!! even with the extra weight.
Good luck and go fast!!

Hot Rod Gang $20.99 This is one cool collection, maybe the greatest body of unknown car songs ever put together by anybody, and they're all loud and raucous and, coincidentally, mix in sex, rebellion, and general delinquent behavior. Walt Benton gets things started hot and heavy with the hot rod/sex anthem "Big Wheel," which mixes the punkiest elements of Chuck Berry's and Ritchie Valens' sounds. It's pedal to the metal time from there on in, through Howie Stange's "This Old Bomb of Mine" (Stange put down his mandolin long enough to come up with a classic that just misses "Maybelline" status; not so the Berry Brothers' rocking instrumental "Hot Rod," which doesn't waste a note or an opportunity. Chuck Brooks and the Sharpies' "Spinning My Wheels" lets up on the intensity, but is such a cool example of '50s pre-punk bravado that it's as indispensable as anything else here, and that's not at all. Richie Deran's "Girl in a Hot Rod" falls short in the creativity and content departments, but then Jimmy Carroll's "Big Green Car" comes along with some overly (which is to say, nicely) amplified guitar and cardboard box drumming. Jan & Arnie's "Gas Money" from Arwin Records, may be the most familiar song here, and the least interesting, even if it is a lot of fun. Rocky Davis' "Hot Rod Baby" is an astonishingly frank meld of sex and cars, with double entendres scattered throughout. "Long John's Flagpole Rock" by Long John Roller is the funniest thing here, and it has some of the best ensemble guitar playing, electric and acoustic, on this set. Howard W. Brady's "Hot Rod Boogie" manages to get an accordion into this kind of song fairly convincingly, but Woody Ball's "Robin Hood and His '56 Ford" takes the disc back into guitar territory. Johnny Bond's "A Hot-Rodder's Dream," cut by Ray Burden, is no match for "Hot Rod Lincoln," but it has its moments; Bob Williams' "Hot Rod Race" cuts closer to "Hot Rod Lincoln" in beat, lyrics, and spirit. Paul Simon may not have known "Brake Jake" by Mike Fern as a kid, but accident or not, elements very similar to its lyrics turn up decades later in one of his most famous songs. Bobby Fry's "Highway Robbery" is one of the very few blues numbers in the entire Buffalo Bop catalog, and makes for a refreshing change of pace. ~ Bruce Eder |

Make Money With Your Classic Car, Old Truck or Hot Rod
Classic Trucks in the movies and starring in TV Commercials!
Owners of old trucks would never deny permission for somebody to take a picture of their vehicle. Do you want to take a picture of my truck? Go ahead. Next time don't even ask!
Let's suppose somebody came up to you and asked for permission to take a picture of your classic truck to publish in a magazine or a website. Would you refuse? Of course not. You're proud of your truck and you want the whole world to see it.
But there are people who don't want to have their classic trucks photographed or filmed. They spend a lot of time fixing their trucks, they go to car shows to show off what they have and yet they refuse to have their trucks filmed or photographed. It doesn't make sense and it's not very smart either. Maybe they don't need the money...
Now let's suppose you had a chance of having your truck filmed for a TV commercial or, better yet, for a movie! How great would that be? Let's also suppose that some TV producer decided to create a new series based on the 1940's, 1950's or 1960's. Wouldn't he(she) need a lot of cars from those eras? And if the series became a hit the vehicles would be used again and again.
Yeah. It it possible and it's not even too hard. You just have to promote your vehicle in the right places. There are companies out there looking for vehicles exactly like yours. Many companies in fact. They look for classic trucks for sale and they buy them. They look for classic cars of all types and they pay rent to the car owners in order to film the cars. There are companies that go after owners of classic cars, old trucks and hot rods in order to list these vehicles in large databases. Advertising agencies put ads in the papers when they need an old car or pickup truck for a TV commercial. Keep your eyes open because your big chance may come from that direction.
If you have a good set of pictures of your little jewel you're one step closer to fame and fortune. Well, may be not fortune but fame is possible...
A movie production company may need classic trucks just like yours. They might need your truck to spend, say, three days in Hollywood and a week on location in New York. They would make the arrangements to have the vehicle transported to both places and might even be willing to pay for your expenses to go along. You would see how a movie is made and you could even end up meeting a couple of famous movie stars just because you own an antique truck.
The producer of a movie or a TV commercial may be looking for a beautifully restored old car, one that looks like it came out of the showroom a couple of days ago. But directors want their films to look real. Therefore they may need a regular classic vehicle, one that shows it's been used. And they might even need a real wreck, a rust bucket so to speak. Your chances are real, no matter what condition your truck is in. Don't be ashamed of it. Go ahead and try.
And how does this thing work? First you have to find an agent, a company that has the contacts and knows where to go with your truck pictures. Get listed on their databases and be patient. You might get a call the following morning but it could also take a couple of years.
Here are a few suggestions of sites you can visit to learn more about this:
MovieVehicles.com
OldCarLocator.com
Cornwell & Sheridan Motor Cars
TVParty.com
Classic-Chassis.com
If you're really committed to the idea of having your vehicle on a movie or a TV commercial you may do what actors do. Have a professional photographer take a series of shots of the vehicle and send them to advertising agencies or talent agencies. Or have a nice video produced, send it to talent agencies and upload it to YouTube, Google Video, Yahoo Video and so on. Even wedding planners may be interested in your old truck or classic car. Promote it well and one day you'll get your big break.
And here's another very important thing to keep in mind: don't hide your prized possession in your garage. Take it to shows, go to swap meets and take your chances at show prizes. You may win a simple trophy and you may also get some prize money. But you'll have to make sure your truck is in show condition before you do that. Nobody will allow you enter your classic car or old truck in a car show if the car or truck is not worth showing. Movies and TV commercials might look for regular old trucks or classic cars, but car shows don't. Car shows want the cream of the crop, so to speak.
All of this is true all over the world. Movies are made everywhere these days and so are TV commercials. Classic car and old truck shows are common in almost every country and you can take advantage of that to make money with your truck or classic car.
Money? With old trucks and classic cars? Yep. It's possible mainly because nobody is making trucks like yours anymore.
