Default It's time to...

Retire the 250k 305 TBI and T-5 in my 92 Camaro RS, I joined here looking for ideas on the easiest way to go about a LS swap like what will be the best choice of engine? I don't want a crate engine, I want to build the engine myself and mount a T-56 behind it, I know I want to use a 4-bbl intake and a injection system like a FiTech. Here is what the engine will go into, it's a 25th anniversary edition that I bought new and I want it to keep up with the 2017 50th anniversary edition!

Good looking car for 250k. As for what you build what are your goals?

Only goal is to have a fun car that can hang with the newer SS Camaros in a 1/4 mile run. Sort of thought a 5.3 or LS1 with a cam and some headers built to turn 6500 would be a good start, or just build a 6.0?

Hope someone here knows a good set up Just wanted to say I've had my service done With Servicing Stop and they are really good! They picked my car up from mine on time, took my car to a local garage, called me up to confirm anything that needed doing and dropped my car back off to mine, all within the time they said! Quick and easy, would recommend to anyone who has a busy life or just in general!

Skip the FITech stuff, I can't believe people actually use that.

If you get a complete pull out engine to start with, it will likely have all of the Fuel injection components minus fuel pump.
