lol thats cold.

swap isnt cheap by any means if done correctly, you can make more power for less money keeping the sbf foundation. but all depends what you want out of the car in the end...

Thanks guys i can see u feel strongly about it and would only cost me the cost of the parts being as i do the work myself but i think ur point was felt i have a cool setup already just getting that ich again maybe ill go for a power adder instead there in lies a new question....turbo...or supercharger...and then wich brand turbo u get more bang for buck on3 ???? Ponydown ???? And wich supercharger kit powerdyne ??? Vortech ???? Lol these are questions ive had i have a nice setup basically ready for boost duncan knows my car better then anyone,lol
Nothing wrong with a PonyDown kit but they have been doing some shady things of taking orders but not shipping them out, I would get a B&G turbo kit or a QuickTime turbo kit or Vortech S-trim or Vortech Si-trim but I wouldn't make more than 450hp because that's about the limits of a stock block, otherwise build a 351 or get an aftermarket block

Thanks man awesome link also!!!! So man now kinda torn between dart 302 or stock 351w

Dart for sure. But I wouldn't keep it a 302 personally, at least a 327. Now if you went turbo I'd choose pony down over on3 and I'd choose vortech over powerdyne.

I don't know what your budget is but I do a few things for sale if you are interested, an R-block 331, TFS Heads, Novi2000, and Vortech S-trim with Aftercooler, could easily make 600-800hp, depending on how you set it up.

Nothing against LS swaps: Great setup.

Same car made 610 whp, smog legal on AED's dyno.

610 through tiny shorty headers and catted exhaust. Imagine with LTs and no cats!

I like the little Chevy 5.3, they seem to stay together better than a LS1, LS2 and LS7, which i have all seen fail, I don't know what the difference is between them but that 5.3 amazes me and how it stays together.

You made 610 with a stock block?

Keep the SBF or do the 03/04 cobra motor maybe even a Coyote swap.

Only reason i consider a LS is for a swap its not that expensive its like buying a supercharger
Lol, it would be cheaper and easier to do a 351 Conversion or a built dart motor.
agreed!!!! build a motor, this hole swapping a motor out is just over rated! At first it was cool, but now everyone is doing it
