Turbo LS1 = $10,000 worth of additional mods to the car to make it survive. My opinion is the poncho motors are a dying breed (sad because they are probably the best of that era). Whatever you decide has to be what you want, not all us knuckleheads. But if you want my opinion, if you can get the 301 that is the way I would go, if not then the only APPROPRIATE engines for a 2nd Gen T/A is a Pontiac 400 or an SD 455.
