May have trouble if you are in a state that enforces emissions

I'm in KY so its pretty much anything goes here. We can cut off cats or anything on our cars so emissions won't be any trouble

I am debating on that and a 5.3 from a 99-04 but the SBC is cheaper but the 5.3 is LSX so its a tough decision
