Ls swap if you have the means. I would, but I like simplicity. I don't like needing a computer to fix my vehicles... I keep tossing up the idea, but I doubt it will ever happen.

in the end what was the total amount you spent haha that motor you got sounds bad ass

not that much did all the port work myself, roller rockers and heads were a fresh rebuild from a friends camaro as was the intake, the pistons are wisecos im a supplier at work, had the whole block polished and chamfered which i did myself. ported the tb myself, upgraded the fuel pressure, added a tpi pump for 20 bucks from a friends camaro. exhaust was on the truck, redid the rings, gaskets, timing set etc, cam was a summit special with lifters for 100 bucks. msd stuff i did with my tuneup when i first got it and transferred it over. alltogether not really that much a few hundred, now my tbi 383 i spent about 2600 and that was worth it mostly for the learning experience and breaking my truck in half, but i wouldve gone ls.
