Re: Project "What was I Thinking" 68 SWB

Good plan going LS. Great platform- BB power, SB size, and NO oil leaks! Keep it up; this thing is gonna be killer

Thanks Chris, glad to see you back on here. The big block was really an ego thing for me, just popping the hood and seeing that fat rat motor has always made me smile but I decided that I really want a modern motor with fuel injection and the ability to drive it anywhere. I know I could add fuel injection and overdrive to my big block but it would cost me much more in the long run then the LS Swap but would still leave me with a motor that leaks oil, has iron heads and a flat tappet cam and gets less then 10 mpg. Wish I would have made the decision sooner but I'm not looking back now.
