Going LT1

I'm starting over. Was going to put an L98 in that I was gathering parts for, but I've now decided to go the LT1 route.

I figured I would put an LT1 in sometime in the future and that the L98 would be put in and used in the meantime. With limited time, I might as well just take my time and prepare for the LT1. Original motor was the 305 TBI. but that was ruined.

Good Idea, thanks for the link. Here is a pic of how she sits, waiting for a transplant. Still looking for pics of the damaged engine and empty engine bay.

LOL, I won't. The LS is very tempting, though.

You should put some info about your car in your signature to prevent questions like these in the future
