Default Might get my way into an ls1....

Greeting to all. I used to creep on here sometimes when I owned an lt1 car. Anyways, I currently have a 91 Camaro that I'm
Building with a carb 4 bolt 350 .40 over, and I have a lifted 1994 k1500 truck. A friend of mine wants to trade me for his 02 transam. Car is in very good condition. What do you guys think?
My car (this vehicle Im not to worried about loosing)

Bought it as a 600 dollar roller a few months ago and is really coming together.
My truck (this is the one I'm attached to)

I bought this truck it was bone stock, and I finally have it the way I want.

The car in trade

Lm1 cat back, ram air lid (which im wondering is that hurting power with out the ram air hood?) cars an auto and meticulously cared for.

I've always wanted an ls1 Camaro. If this car was a Camaro I would have traded already. But I can always swap it with a Camaro once I have it. The bad side is I'd be without a truck, no more beach driving, off roading, snow rain etx.

What do you guys think?

At the end it's your call man, I mean if you're saying you would have already done the trade if it was a camaro it seems like you want one, but idk whether you want the camaro for the ls1 and overall experience or for the name and styling. lol If it's for the car as a "whole" you'll be getting the same thing, IMO.
And like you said you could sell it or trade for a camaro

You will miss that truck, I came from a big off-road truck, it was my baby but I'm very happy with what I'm in now

Lol, I did the same thing, I had an f250 that I loved before this car, but I wouldn't trade this car for anything, I've never had anything I've loved so much, guess Amarillo does that to you right? lol

That lid isnt taking any power away from the car. How many miles are on the bird?

Like 100k. But it's meticulously cared for. I just wanted an ls1 ever since I had an lt1 car. My truck has 165k and the Camaro has well over 200k, the motor In it has 10k. As for Camaro over firebird, I just favor the look of a Camaro over firebird.
