Hello everyone. New to LS motors. Don't have a camaro or factory equipped LS ride, but currently converting my BBC 66 Nova drag car into a LS powered street car. Hope to learn through the process. Mike

Thumbs up

Thanks, no time to bracket race anymore so decided to turn it into a street car. Figured it would be more streetable and handle better with an LS motor and someday twins.

Thanks for the greetings. Car is apart now. Just did 25.4 update and fitting motor plates for the LS. Still needs floor, firewall, wiring and plumbing. Can't spend as much time on it as I would like to, but it's getting there.
