    yeah i thank you for your idea though... it got me to go to tsp and look at their stuff... i think its a better route... the 402 i "designed" 7500 with the heads and all... im not sure if thats good or bad lol... i have a feeling that what it would come out to to build the ls1 into a 383 though...

    woah... the 414 is the sammmmmeeeeee price and the 408 is like 1000 cheaper than both... hmm... which in your opinion would you say... go big 414 or save money 408... thats a lot of bang for your buck

    What are you up to tomorrow Bullet ? I think I have some good advice for you, but I would rather just talk then have to type it all up.

    ok so it looks like i should just do rearend, put the cam i have in, and the lil ol ls6 intake... that will tide me over till i can save up for the 408? i figure 7000 with all the added options i want... then what 1-2 grand for install... so it would probably be about next summer before i would be able to do that... possibly end of next summer....

    I have a feeling the plans for our cars will line up similar. you will just have the luck of learning from my mistakes, and not have some of the same circumstances I did.
