Default Greetings! New to LS1Tech

Hello to All,

I'm new to the forum, but I just learned a lot about LSX conversion after extensive browsing yesterday. Great forum, thanks for all the good info.

I was basically an old school BBC L78/L89/LS6/LS7/ZL1 fan and until now wasn't much interested in the new stuff.

Now with the LS7 Z06 available, I'm singing a different tune.

I've got multiple projects in the works, which I never considered anything but standard BBC/SBC engines, but now...?

Projects:

'69 SS RS L78 Camaro, to be restored to original stock condition

'69 RS 350 Camaro w/Factory AC & deluxe interior

'82 C20 454 daily driver

'89 K15 Blazer 350 TBI drive on nice days

'78 Buick Skylark (just like Nova) waiting to be transformed into low-buck super sleeper

'66 Mustang Coupe 6 cyl Fact AC (I know, don't laugh)
