Wanted to introduce myself. I recently found my first car, 65 impala, and I am in the process of purchasing it back after 20 years. The original engine is gone and now has a 327, but it is not what I want. I was thinking a 396 or 502 until I came across this site. Superdaves thread on his 65 is very interesting and is making me consider an LS 1. I am sure I will have a lot of ?'s and look forward to talking with you all.

 

Welcome. Fuel injection is the way to go!

 

Welcome! That's amazing you were able to find your 65 Impala after 20 years. I wish I could do the same with my 72 Skylark, but I know where that ended up, in the junk yard after I side swiped a guard rail on black ice when I was 18 years old haha. Keep us updated on your progress and if you do go with an LS1.
