Default Hello from Utah

Just chiming in to say hello.
I am contemplating an LS swap in a 69 Nova. I have found a plethora of information on this site already and look forward to finding more. Thanks to all who have contributed to the site this will make my journey easier.
If anyone has recommendations for my project please send me links or pics. I have an LQ9 out of a 2007 Silverado complete with wiring computers and 4X4 4L80E trans. I am in the planning stages at the moment.
I have received the parts to convert the trans to 2wd which will be my starting point.
The Nova has a 350 engine with a turbo 350 at the moment ran 14.2 in the quarter before they closed our drag strip. I lost interest for a bit after the closure of the strip then got my hands on an LS so here we go again.
I have an interest in doing a twin turbo set up in the future but for now I would like to get the new setup in and redo my gearing.

If you have a hard time finding parts premiere performance in Salt Lake City/ Midvale is a great place to get performance parts and get them installed There pricing is fair and you would be supporting your local shop
