Hey guys, I'm looking for some advice. My brother in-law is looking to freshen up or replace the motor in his 90 firebird TBI,T-top car. Does any make a plug and plug computer upgrade and are they worth the money, or am I better to do a LS swap , it looking like a lot of work(maybe I'm wrong). Just looking for ideas, things that worked and things to stay away from. Thanks!

 

Can’t go wrong with a blueprint crate and a terminator X

 

As always, the decision of which path to follow (either stay with a SBC direct swap or go to an LS) will be determined by:

*The expected level of performance, and subsequent use of the finished vehicle.

*Who will be doing the actual work; if it's the car owner, his/her experience level.

*And of course, probably the most important factor---the budget (a good starting point here would be to double however much you think it will actually cost).
