Looks to be a '69 or later by the hood. Also, the 350 is a 5.7. 305 is a 5.0. I've got a '71 GMC with a '68 front clip because I liked the slant hood and no trim pieces around the grill better.

Yea, it is '69 or later. I had a baby blue 68. 305 with Powerglide.

10MPG, I had it when you could not get gas, 1973.

There is no 350 5.0 maybe it originally had a 5.0 and someone replaced it with a 5.7. It's impossible to be 5.0L and 350 ci. Built many SBC over the last few years. It was ky hobby before I got into cubs. Now if you really want to mess with people go hunt down a 302 Chevy but expect to pay when ya find one


Also I'm wondering if its a 305 ci 5.0l with a th350 transmission

If it is a 68, it has a later model front clip on it. CRASH??

Use high school math to convert 5.0 liters to cubic inches, you will find the explain that.

61.023 cubic inches in 1 Litre. 61.023 X 5.7 = 347.8311 CI

61.023 X 5.0 = 305.115 CI

Of course that's approximately, the liters are rounded.

As said perhaps it's the transmission that's a 350?

If it was original a 1968 5.0 would have been a 307, but that truck is not a 1968. Besides the hood and grill differences it has side molding that a 1968 wouldn't. There's differences in the interior you could tell by also.

Powerglides are cool. Was this the factory tranny? My buddies dad has a '68 with a powerglide and you can't even tell when it shifts. It's crazy. This truck also runs mid 12s in the quarter.

rushlow, don't take comments to heart, everyone is just trying to help.

I am betting that it has a build date thats late 68, usually anything past Oct back then was the next model year.

The front end is from a 69 through 70 model, and they didn't use the term 5.0 liter back then.

V8's available then were 283, 307, 327, 350 started in 69 and a 396 big block.

Here is a link that will help you a little.

Hope that helps.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
