Re: 350 swap

welcome aboard.

first, the sbc cannot be converted to an ls1; completely different motors. if you're looking to put an LSx motor in your car, its doable. Check out the subforum here:

as for converting the engine to a 383, you'll need at least a new crankshaft, but depending on the age and wear you may want to get it cleaned up and install all new rotating assembly parts.
