Default pondering the idea...whatcha think
anyone dropped an ls7 into an f body?
I know the engine is like close to $20,000 but..just wondering..

Also, how much would it cost to build a forged 427 from scratch...i know a few companies do...what am I looking at as far as engine price assembeled...

remember, I am just fantasizing at work..wanted to get other opinions..
Thanks!
