Default LS1 out...BB in

I'm considering taking a built up formula without a motor and dropping my extra 509ci blown BB in it...how hard would that be, the motor puts out somewhere around 750hp with a B&M megablower and dual carbs... don't want a driver just a street legal drag car.

big block will fit, it needs custom stuff, but will fit.

However, i dont think the blower will, <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" /> I know you need to cut the cowl under the windshield so you can remove the distributor, on a BBC.
