Hey guys, im new, would this swap work alright? I was thinking of putting like a 350/325hp from a C5 in a 87 Camaro. Then on ebay, there is a b&m supercharger or blower, i cant remember which one it was that provides an extra 100hp. Would this be a good set up? How quick in the quarter would I expect to be running?

C5s have LS-1s. You will have to swap the ECM, harness and tranny along with the motor. Also, you will have to work on the motor mounts. Not a simple swap for the "novice".
