Default Back in the game...

Yesterday I bought a 94 Z28 for $1000. It needs engine work, but it runs(kinda) and drives. The ad said that it had a cracked head and it burned coolant.

Go down to pick it up and it's knocking pretty bad, only in low rpm's then it goes away. Finally builds up enough pressure I'm assuming.

Anyways, I decided to take it anyways because it was a solid foundation and it remarkibly clean for year/miles. Plus, I figure that I can find a used LT1 around here for decently cheap.

So, I'm looking for a little help, if you guys find a nice, stock, used LT1 engine, could you please let me know? I want to get this thing on the road ASAP, because it's starting to get nice up here!

Thanks!

I have located a couple LT1 from cop cars. Are these at all compatible? I know there are differences...
