there was a guy by the name of Leo that had a white one running around with an LS1 about 4 years ago. He has a small cam and custom headers. That thing moved out. He said the LS1 was lighter than the stock motor. Sounds like a good swap.

Ghost, you n your small blocks. Small blocks make great power and guzzle some good gas, get out of that old 1970's mentality, the lsx engines makes great power by using 1/3 of the gas that a normal small block would use. Go with the lsx engines, the higher the x number the better, but the more expensive.

$300 sbc > $1500+ lsx motor

wiring for sbc > wiring for lsx motor

ease of swap for sbc (uhhh...coil...battery...done) > ease of swap for lsx


with all that said I'd rather have an lsx swapped car but it's very expensive to swap
