    looking for a crate engine... suggestions?

    i recently bought a 98 trans am with 120k on it, it runs really well, but i bought it cheap so i could make it my own. any suggestions on replacement engines?

    You could build a mild 402 for the price of an LS2 brand new.
    Or at least very close.

    forged is refering to a iron block i'm pretty sure. the ls1s in our f-bodys is alumminum..plus forged 402 is nice!! alot of the big power players like the forged 402 becuase of reliablity and power
