Newbie from Texas I'm new to LS1 style motors. I'm about to buy a 00 Z28 for $700 with no motor and trans. It's a good buy because everything is there computer wiring harness and all. Came from an 84 mustang so it's a big jump. Hoping to have a good time messing with these beasts!

Well right now I'm kinda on a budget. Was thinking about just putting in a stock LS1 and just do a whole gasket kit. And then slowly buy forged internals, 243 heads ported and polished, cam not sure what size yet but good sized, intake, TB, the car is coming with long tubes and a guy I know has a built 4l60e that he took out of a 96 1500 if I can make it fit I might put that in

do you want a new crate ls1 or a used one? if you want a crate it is about the same to go get you a 383 from TSP. and Needville, Texas is not too far out, hell im only 2 hours from there, OH and if you want to look for some events in the area check out TPE (texasperformanceevents.com).
