Smile Hey all...

...im new here to LS1. Im planning on doing a swap in my 68 Camaro. Not knowing which way to go I decided to join and hopefully learn something and figure that out. So on that note, should I go with a 5.3 or 6.0? Any help is truly appreciated. Thanks

Oh trust me....I LIKE MY BB !!! Especially after I put in a 700R4 last summer. Such fun to drive. But it gets REALLY HOT here in Kansas. And know shes is getting a make over this winter I thought I might update it and put on some A/C for the wife. And A/C looks so much more sanitary on a LS rather than the BB. Its not set in stone yet but im looking towards a carbureted LS since I already have the 700R4. But that's not set in stone either !!! LOL
