'83 shorty progress

Making a little progress on my '83. ... 1993 Camaro Z28 LT1 motor going into my short bed. ... It's been a "struggle," but we're gettin' there slowly.

Carburetor. Got the intake from GM Performance last year after about a 2-3 month wait. … Using the “like-new” Edelbrock that was on my 305 when I pulled it.

Nice choice on the LT1. I have one in my truck with a Comp 306 cam due to bad gas in california that made it hard to run on 91 octane. Although my compression is now almost 10.8-1, and I can get away with 87. Although it really requires 89.

Like a Richard Holdener says.
The Gen1 sbc was great.
The new LS is great.
And in-between there was a forgotten warrior. The Gen2 LT1.
