just checking in to see if every body changed there mind for the old Chevy small block. it seems to be going the way of the dinosaur. every body is making a very strong point for the LS motor and really its hard to find any fault with your logic as spoke would say.............thanks .......Anthony

How about both? Doesn't Bill Mitchell The Engine Shop make a hybrid that uses standard SBC bottom with LS heads?? Probably more expensive than just going with the LS.

Vintage look = SBC

Close the hood and drive it= LS

LOL!!!
Those new LS3's that are in the 2010 Camaro are wicked!! It's already @ 426 HP @ the crank.
Throw on a full exhaust, a cold air intake and a tune and you get a 50 horsepower gain?!!?! WOW!!
I can only imagine what a cam/heads/intake package would do!!!
I do LOVE the sound of a BBC though. CANNOT BEAT IT!

Default Lsx

One with a F-1 Pro Charger is even better.
