Need an opinion from you Hooskie guys.
This 350 does indeed have a new piston. There really isnt even carbon on the crown.

That being said, I understand these can be turned into a 346, which according to the interwebz is as good as double stamp night with free lap dances at the jiggly bar.
I have to believe right now this is a 350 top end.
Is there a big enough difference between the 2 to warrant me pulling this top end in favor of a new 346 one?

Leave it til she blows

They run good as is, better with the 353 flat top piston and more betterer with the 346 p/c. My little 353 with a welded pop up runs good enough that it'll never see a 346 top end though.

You could also throw a 345 top on there. Different bolt patterns but it can be done.

That would require removing the bearing cup. Not sure why anyone would ever go that route but the 345's do run okay.

If it were mine I would use that top end, even more so if it has a flat top piston instead of the dished OEM job. If it has a plastic intake clamp though you're best off pulling the jug to replace it. At that point opinions may change. A simple muffler mod under the stock deflector makes a big difference on those. You'll embarrass clowns with 026s.

Piston looks flat through the exhaust port and plug hole, best I can tell.
Has plastic clamp though.
I'm heading to the mythical land of the @Stump Shot next weekend. I'll hose it off and toss it in the truck.

I've rebuilt a dozen or so 340/346/353
The 353 were always the best runner's for me.

They get driven 200yds then shut off then a another 200yds their entire life. Open highway is probably a shock to the system. Lol

The oldest ford at work is maybe a 2016 has a few thousand miles on it and the box is rotting off....salt life.
