So if you have a motor chillin - slap it in and beat the snot out of it while you get the monies for that LSA you want.

Hell - a $500 JY 5.3 with a monster cam and head work will net you nearly 500 flywheel ponies. And that's no slouch. And think of how much money you'll have saved over buying that LS3.

The JY appears very capable.

How much want vs. need?

These debates are just like going to a buffet.

My 355 SBC has more than enough "public road" power to get my car impounded, license suspended for a year, and create enough fine, fee, and legal liabilities to cover a good LSA take out.

Just playing Devil's advocate........as realistically what I "want" isn't really in my best interest. If there was a decent local track and autocross venue then I'd have needs.
