Now you understand what it takes to get an LS motor in your car.. I feel your pain but in the long run it will pay off.. If it is to much for you.. I have a 406 SBC that will just drop right in!!

I just cannot tell you how horrible the motor that currently resides in the car is---I don't think it makes 300 HP. I was joking with Dave that I added 1.6 rockers to it to increase total lift on the cam to over .400----with virtually no change to power---LOL. It's just a place holder---but a very anemic one--so I am def looking forward to the motor install. The cool thing is, it came with a new Comp Cam and springs that needs to be installed. Should pump up the power to over 500---that will be a welcome addition.
