A New Standard for Affordable Small-Block Performance!

If you’re looking for a budget-friendly powerhouse to bring your classic or custom build to life, the Chevrolet Performance SP350/357 Crate Engine is your answer. Delivering 357 horsepower and a strong reserve of low-end torque, this engine proves why the legendary Chevy 350 Small-Block remains the gold standard in performance and reliability.

Built with a brand-new 4-bolt main block, durable Vortec iron heads, and a hydraulic roller camshaft that enhances airflow and drivability, the SP350/357 provides a smooth, responsive performance with modern engineering. It delivers 24 more horsepower than the 350 HO—offering an unbeatable combination of power, longevity, and value for your project.
