What would you do?(piece by piece, or complete)? I'm doing an LS1 swap on my 94.. I am still completing the funds needed, but I wanted some opinions.
I can get a complete LS1/T56 swap in my area with about 60k miles for 4600$ It comes with harness etc. everything needed, except K-member.
Now this seems like the easy way out.. but the thing is i am certainly putting in a cam etc.
Anyway, I eventually plan on changing the heads also.. but I wont be able to do so after paying 4600 for the engine/tranny, and 1500 for labor, plus 8-900 for the cam swap(brett beuer cam kit, after install).
So I'm wondering, would it be smarter/cheaper to piece everything together, since I'm eventually changing it out anyway, or should I just pay the 4600, and change as I go? I also kinda need to finish this project by around march-april.
