Finally figured out why I had so much trouble with the C4 or my 69 427....they were crappy built cars. Not that they were over modded or overbuilt, just not reliable cars to start with. Completely passed on a C5 for the quality issues. The seats were good for about 15-25 k before the leather wore though.

Will have to say though the evolution of LSx engine is outstanding in every way. Rented a new C6 about a month ago and drove around Dana Point on hwy 1. Don't get me wrong, 370's are fun cars to drive, a hell of a hit for the money and driving one puts a grin on my face. However, the Vette engine overcomes a lot of issues. The acceleration over 60mph is what really gets your attention as they feel as strong 60-90 mph as the Z does 40-70 mph. Now, if they just didn't fall apart.
thats it it's official you need to be the first guy on here to do an LS swap.

Edit: Although I will not accept anything less than an ls7,x,9. Definitely not the new camaro engine either. In fact NO camaro engines or you will be tried for treason.
