Carb'd type builds are not worth the investment IMO.
Assuming you get an engine with all the sensors, harness, and ECM.
For the intake and Edelbrock LS tuning module you're looking at ~$650
Plus the cost of a carb unless you have one so figure + $300+
So you're looking at ~$1,000 to go backwards in technology.
You can spend the same if you keep the EFI
1. ECM reprogram $75 (guy on ebay) or $300 John Speartech or buy HP tuners and DIY.
2. Harness Modifications - DIY for free, OR pay John Speartech ~$400
3. In tank fuel pump modifications - DIY kits for < $50 or buy a Spectra EFI tank new for ~$450-$600 with pump.
4. In tank fuel pump $230 give or take.
So you want to go carbed why exactly ?? It will run better with the computer.
I put an LS1 in my 78 Camaro. The prices have come waaaaay down with the Gen IV motors
VS the Gen III LS1/2/3 etc motors. I also agree, L92 heads are what you want.
300-320cfm right out of the factory. LS1 heads IIRC were ~250cfm.
