Anybody know a source for a piston for a 91 350 sdl. New or used. The cheapest one I can find new is $295.50. Where would I look for a used one?

Sheesh.......can you get a used piston out in the junkyard? There's a 1991 350SDL in the local junkyard.

would if I could. There's two pull a parts close Charlotte and Winston Salem. Neither have a 350. probably wait til they get one in since I am not in a hurry.

you could be waiting a veeery long time, they're kinda few an' far between!

I wasn't clear with my previous question.

IS it POSSIBLE to pull a piston in the junkyard? What would be the process/procedure? Can the oil pan be removed without jacking up the engine? Unbolt a rod from the crank and then push it up?

You have to lift the block to slide out the pan. Someone's looking for a .970 pan so buy it to sell.

Go for a middle piston which is less likely to have bent rod and diagonal wear pattern on the skirt.

Since you have pull the head, buy it to resell.

Hope your getting around better.
