The stock fuel system can be retained if the rails from a 97 vette are used, they allow for a returnless fuel system.
A sbc build will be that much and would never be as good of a platform. Agree or disagree, that is my $.02!
Then vote no, and we will go from there, I did go to a friends shop today and he has a slew of ls engines and some new t56 set ups we talked a bit but it is not worth while till the voting is done, At this point it is looking like its going olds, But im still going to try to swing a t56 if the budget allows I can adapt that easy to a olds if thats what is voted.
