Lt1s may not be kind of the hill but they still look really good.

Well i used the stock crank but forged everything else. I also have Lloyd do the heads. Top to bottom i think i spent 3000 on the thing start to finish. I dont know why i just didnt stroke it but i feel like the 355 will make NICE power for a street car. Wasnt trying to build a car for the track.
