I found one of these with 17k miles on it for $1,000.00 with all of the wiring harness.I'm thinking about putting it in a 96 camaro that I bought.I don't know anything about these motors i.e. L?, bore,stroke,how much it can be bored and what parts are interchangeable with the LSX motors.I think that I had read that these heads are a good head to use?Which cam to use?I want to put an M6 behind it if it's not too much of a hassle?Any help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,
Duane

they are 325ci. as for boring them out. if done correctly youll have an ironblock 5.7. all parts are interchangable. stock they are 285/325 so roughtly what a LT1 has now. they are 9.5:1 SCR
