Mate I haven't used either because I have never put a 350 in my car because it would eat my w58 for breakfast. I figure the point of having a 350 is to have power and if you have a w series box it can't hack the torque. The r154 box would be the go, but they are costly
personally I would use an iriduim plug.
what is point setting for chev 350 v8 engine Use dwell meter to set the gap to 30 degrees dwell.
Chev 350's haven't used points for a long time. If you have an older one, just put the new points in place & reassemble the distributor, then, with the engine running, open the little window and use an Allen wrench to adjust the dwell. Of course, that means that you will need a dwell/tach. Newer Chev 350's don't have points. Correct dwell would be 30 degrees.
The ONLY transmission you can use in that year is a 4L60E if it is a 1/2 ton and a 4L80E if it is a 3/4 ton BECAUSE of the COMPUTER SYSTEM on the truck.

It depends on how you plan to use the car.

Use Dexron-VI.
Since this category is 305-350, I'll have to assume that YOUR engine is one of the two mentioned. The 1990 Chev 305 and 350 did not use a timing belt. They used a timing chain, and unless something really odd happened, you should never need to replace the timing chain until you rebuild the engine.
The 1985 Chevrolet 1-ton van with a 350 engine typically features a 5.7-liter (350 cubic inches) V8 engine, producing around 190-210 horsepower and 300-350 lb-ft of torque, depending on the specific configuration. It usually comes with a 4-speed automatic transmission and has a towing capacity of around 7,000 pounds. The van's frame is designed for heavy-duty use, with a payload capacity of over 3,000 pounds. Additionally, it offers various options for seating and cargo configurations, making it versatile for both commercial and personal use.

Yes, you can use a 305 Chevy ECM (Engine Control Module) on a 350 engine, but there are some considerations. The ECM is calibrated for the 305's specific parameters, such as fuel maps and timing, which may not be optimal for a 350. You might experience performance issues or suboptimal engine efficiency. For the best results, it's advisable to use an ECM that is matched to the 350 engine or to reprogram the 305 ECM to accommodate the differences.
