The weight argument it stupid, compare a Warhawk LS motor to a all aluminum BBC, the weight difference is worth it to me with the kazillion more cubes.

LS1 was my want, but SBC is what i had laying around. It was a rather easy swap if you have the third gen radiator and serp system, but the stock shit can work, just need to get a GOOD electric WP and the correct hoses.

Yea, i have the same carb hat and filter on mine, but i angled it to the right and ran a 90* L bow and then the same filter, i will run it like you have it when i get my new hood. Good job.

Yea, i can only get about 8.7-8.8 in the 1/8th, the cam is WAY too big for these vortec heads and the intake if the gay ass performer with the shortys, killing the HP badly. But, i threw it together to ditch the opti and have a DD again besides my truck.
Going to sell this car though, i want another third gen for a DD.

should have done motor plates... you would have been able to keep your wipers. my 95z has a 454 between the frame rails and the rear float bowl sits under the wiper cowl with a hole drilled in the plastic cowl trim to adjust float level. i will post pix soon.
