They do it by themselves. Give it time but why wreck a perfectly good running motor. Doesn't make sence, pull it out and sell it.

How old are you? Accident or not, a 350 will not just bolt right in and work on the truck... Good luck and be lucky you have a working vehicle

You might want to figure out your cost per mile for both setups. Then figure out how much the swap will REALISTICLY cost you. Then you'll see how many miles it'll take you to break even.

Im betting the 350 would honestly get you worse mileage, and plus the cost of the converting to be honest i dont think itd be worth it like someone else said why ruin a perfectly good running motor and vehicle, be thankful you have a vehicle because alot of kids your age cant afford one these days in this bad economy
