If your going to slow the car down with a ls-jaun, you might as well have the rest of the pos car to go with it.

Seriously I thought about this swap before but it seemed like too much money for the swap for the results I have seen, motors didn't seem to last long before they needed a rebuild.

Don't listen to the purists.
Stuff the LS1 in there if you are up for the challenge and don't look back.

Ok, let's hear this how quick are these lsx swaps, how long do they last, and how much? I already seen a stock Z06 with 80K miles break the LS7 into little pieces, I still have the oil mess on my trailer when I towed the Z06 home. I seen a NA stock block SBF 347s running low 11s and high 10s, my old stock block SBF 310 motor with a 200 shot is running 9.5xs, but what's cheaper time you do the conversion into a Foxbody and what's the results?

very vague question, but the bare blocks arnt the weak link, usually the pistons or rods go first. stock ls1 swap in a fox should get you to high 11's, and 27mpg freeway
