350 guy here.

I've done a couple of iterations on 350 motors.

The first iteration was a very basic 69 350, #47 heads. This was the 1969 equivalent of your 1970 350. I put a Summit 2800 cam in...

We bought ours from Lee and couldn't be happier. Great feel, no problem with the turning radius, easy install with no adapters, etc. Probably the best improvement that we made to the car.

All of them, this ‘74 should have the same subframe as a first-gen Firebird. Rear end and springs should interchange as well.
