^^I looked at doing an LS1, but honestly, for as much as that would have cost (about $6500 with the motor in and running), I can build a 302 that not only revs higher but will walk a stock/lightly modded LS1.
And besides... You can't say "Rollin.. in my LS1 with my ragtop down so my hair can blow"... Everyone knows it's "Rollin.. in my 5.0" teehee.
yeah they are expensive, plus you will have one of the original 2fordys... lmao
