Got a 94 Formula rolling chassis that I recently picked up. Gutted entire car. Right now working on painting the engine bay/chassis with por15 so car will last forever lol. Trying to decide which way to power it.

Sound like fun. I just installed an intake and headers on mine. Next is a cam swap. I think you should go with a procharged ls1. That would be sick lol.

Yes that would be sick for sure. Unfortunately the procharger would put me slightly over budget lol. Not to mention the never ending tuning battle with a forced induction setup(so I hear).

Plans include:
-Engine..383..4XXhpish with some good torque for the street
-M6,4.10's,9"
-Tubular suspension/Kmember
-Weight reduction including HVAC delete
