Hey! have you guy's read my post at the beginning? Stop talking costs of old School vs Gen3! At a 1000$ for a complete engine, plus, say another1500$ for the conversion (If you really want to do this) you get 480 Horses.
I'd be curious to know how much your engine costed Craig? With the fast set up,$ and aluminumn bock,($)...Just the block costs more than the price of the complete LSX engine...and it makes "only" 538 Hp.
If you want to talk looks, just look at Steve's! Yeah, tastes are personnal, but if you don'y like that engine, it might be more than taste that's your problem! (and you haven't heard it either!)
I just can't wait 'till next month... We'll take that conversation up again.
Anyway, i think old school will always have its place, but we can't deny that LS engines are "Today" and the future.
Hey i even had a luck when i got my LS1...I paid 600$ for it and the 4L60 and they we're still in the car-Running. (the rear of the car is another story :-)! So deals are out there. You just have to look!
Lead.
