What do you guys suggest?
I am looking at doing a swap from my L03, and i was just wondering waht swap you all recommend. 350 tpi or should i do a big block? I would like to do a swap to a 5 speed as well. I just dont know what exactly will allow me to get the most horse but still stay drivable on the street. I was lloking at maybe a 350 a 383 or 454.

Go for an LSX motor. Takes 150lbs off your front end and is built to make power - with the right aftermarket parts of course.
