A stock LS1 with a cam is worth 400, a turbo can get you upwards of 475 at 8PSI. Only downside is modifying the third gen to accept it.
i looked into it when i had my 83. it is really an easy swap for teh most part. they make swap mounts, swap headers, wiring harness adaptors. easiest thing to do is buy swap mounts and use aftermarket gauges.
it is just time sonsuming because of the rewiring, damn gm and their electrical tape!!! lol
