Re: Would you do it? Rip out a Turbo LS for a Big Block

My question is why not pretty up the LS/turbo swap? Pretty easy to clean up the wiring and turbo inlet and outlet tubing. I'm not running a turbo but you can make the wiring go away with careful routing. My 68 LS6/T56 swap pic.
You didn't say what tranny you are running. Would that need mods for the big block.
I can't see adding a 250 lb plus more than the LS iron big block/heads engine to the nose of the truck for a bunch less horse power. Less rear traction due to the added front end weight?
