Default new guy

My name is Anthony and im currently in the process of swapping a 5.3 iron block into my 1984 Buick Electra Park Avenue. Still undecided to go forced induction or N/A. As of right now engine bay is gutted and redoing suspension and steering. Have complete 5.3 out of a 2001 tahoe minus the wiring. Transmission is still undecided. Ive had this car for over 10 years now. Was a daily driver and has sat since i blew the 307 4 years ago. My goal is to have a nice sounding reliable boat that will only get driven on weekends and maybe a few cruises a year. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Pics to come soon.
