Didnt see your comment at first, but they definitely go through just about everything! Thanks!
Grab the whole LT1, send the LT1 bottom end to the machine shop, sell the cast iron heads, get some LT1 aluminum heads, send the heads and intake to Lloyd Elliot. Swap the LT1 into your truck complete. For ignition, ditch the optipuke and go EFI Connection 24x for the LT1 that has the cam sensor built into the timing cover. Run the 0411 PCM and some D585 LS truck coils. Its not hard to make 400 hp at the tires under 6,000 rpm with a stock cube, heads/cam LT1.
More than likely if I do end up doing anything, a complete LT swap will be done, and 24x will be done as well.
But machine shop just got a hold of me on the L31 they have, and that's a decent chunk of change to get that thing completed like i wanted.
LT swap will be on the back burner for now as I cant justify the $600 for an unknown condition LT1 or L99, so maybe once some other things get situated, a LT1 or even LT4 may be sitting on my engine stand
