Back in F-Bodyland!

[SteveR]

Yup. Got me a new F-Body :D It's an '81 Camaro that's one of Melissa's. It's a little rough right now, but it's going to be an LSX/T-56 land missile hopefully before next August. Here's some pics;

it looks rough because the paint is faded, but look how solid the quarters are. i bought the car for an ls1/t56 swap, lsx is even better :)

[Untamed]

Yay 2nd gens! Woop!

[cdacda13]

Good luck with the project.

Quick question, isn't LSx just any LS motor, but LSX is an actually crate engine? Always semi-confused on that.

Thats how I interpret it, and the LSX is the block, not a complete crate motor.

[bubba428]

the LSX is a 454 :drool:

[Mike]

the LSX block can be a lot of different displacements

[bubba428]

the LSX block can be a lot of different displacements

true...what is it, 6.0, 6.6, 7.0 and 7.4?

[SteveR]

true...what is it, 6.0, 6.6, 7.0 and 7.4?

the block comes with a 3.990 bore and can go up to a 4.250.

yea, I'm throwing around the idea of the LSX block, Warlock heads (hybrid LS-7 and C5-R), and maybe a twin turbo setup, screwcharger, or Kinsler EFI injection system.

[jims69camaro]

[after budget]you know, on second thought, i am going to get a junkyard 454 block, and hopefully that will have D-port heads on it that i can have ported. but this means i will have enough to put a real transmission behind it and a rear in the car, so i am not constantly breaking stuff by over-powering and under-planning...[/after budget]

j/k :mrgreen: pimp those sheep out!

yea, no kidding man :lol: I priced out the LSX build today and man thats expensive :lol: I'm finalizing the cost on a nice big block now and it's looking to be way less.
