LS1 swap would be sick in that thing.

Nice car man.
If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay for it?

Nice shape, BBC torque is cool but the drivability will never match an LS1 or even maybe an LQ4. How was the price?

My uncle has a 69 with a 383 stroker and a built TH350. Still has the 307 badges . Brand new engine - builder claims around 425 HP... Never threw it on the dyno. It's a fun car when the trans has all of it's gears working... I got to drive it on my last two birthdays. Scary as ****, mostly because of the useless "bucket seats" that are two slabs of foam each bolted down on one side with only lap belts for safety.
