If you were going to go through all that trouble it'd be better to use one of the more recent LS engines.

if your were going to go to all that trouble then just put in a 454.. see how can can keep going. why i said my ls1 because i actually owned it. trying to keep things realistic. and the ls1 is actually a popular engine to be swapped into imports IE the rx7's

Its popular because its cheap, and there are kits to do it. But, the same kits will work for ANY of the LSX motors really...so if you had no motor and you wanted to do the swap...MINIMUM I would put in is an LS2. If I had more monies and could find one? LS3.
