I say go for the newer stuff because you can't beat technology & perfomance with these new motors these days. :smt023

im confident that any gen 1 small block with an lt1 intake manifold and a cam that isnt too ridiculous could get my target mpg |
i concur with your ideas about the GEN1 SBC. In fact if i were going the full injected route with my car i would have gone in the same direction. Not only will you save money on parts but if god forbid something goes wrong with NOS or Power Adders than your not out $1,000 on an LS1 block
T-5 Tranny? |
im really leaning towards the ls1 at this point...seeing as how i can get one for 1000, yes thats a complete engine.
im looking for alternatives to dishin out the cash for a t56 but it needs to handle the power...any ideas or am i just better off picking up a t56?
