the wiring of a LSX in any chassis isnt that big of a deal. they sell harness's or you can make yours work but going thru the harness
its nothing more then a standalone harness


EFI is where its at...youll get more heads turning more props with a LSX based motor then you wil lwith a Gen I motor

a 400 is that much better than a 383, it's just that it is damn near impossible to find good condition 400 blocks. bang for buck 383!

yeah i found a site which seems decent that sells them for a good price. i will look for the site and post it.yeah i was thinking of a 400 with a good set of heads and carb and maybe some gas will give me more than the 12s i am looking for.

Would a th350 tranny be up to the challenge???
