Big block, big block, big block…

Any questions if you do go over to the dark side, just ask, I’ve been through it all already.

I like small blocks more because they rev higher. Putting gas in the small block is going to be crazy, i cant imagine big block gas :banghead: .

Suggestion. Clean up the firewall and paint it the same color as the body. Also fill in the seams. Pimp :snky: So glad I did it. You could even paint your inner fenders the same color as the body too.

an LS2 would be a good candidate for an engine me thinks (400hp out of the box)… although some people don’t like swapping a newer generation motor into older cars

good luck with whatever route you go :tup:

No snky …Its a small block chevy. The yellow camaro just needs new plugs,big ass bov and new ET.streets. Then its up to the weather. My car needs smoothed firewall,painting frame, taking the control arms off and cleaning them up, relocate the msd box, clean up some wiring, tranny & motor, then front clip. Not worried about it, if the weather was nice out I wouldn’t bother with some of that stuff.
