Fuck that. If it was a carbed 350 I'd yawn, but an lsx is easily one of the finest engines ever created, regardless of what it's in. Good choice. Blind brand loyalty is retarded.  |

Something about Turbonetics turbo's they always seem larger. That 76 looks really big. Keep your thread updated, cool combo.

Why would the Ford Boys hate you? It's just a re-badged ford motor, doesn't matter what it's called.

Do you still have a stock 5.0 sitting around??? Take the lsx head, and set it down on the block. Then bolt it on. You'll be amazed hwo well the studs/bolts line up. |

ya i know bolt spacing/bolt holes are in the same location alot of builders actually use sbf torque plates on the lsx motors but other then that they share nothing in similarities the heads are completley different the blocks are different rotating assembly etc etc etc
