Re: LT1 swap help?
Probably a better idea. The LT was a great motor but just not worth the $$$ needed rebuild and the sweat and aggravation to install. I was going to suggest you do a price comparo between regular SBC parts and LT specific parts (Heads, Intake, Waterpump, etc) and let that be your guide. But the Chevy gods have decided for you.
Just as a side note, I got my 5.3 LS complete with Engine, Trans, Wiring, Under hood fuse box, PCM, Throttle pedal, front drive and manifolds for $1400. It can be done cheaply, just have to watch the costs.
