A bit rich for me, the budget isnt quite that big. Through some research I found you can use the cable TB but you need to swap the 58 tooth trigger for the 24 tooth from an LS1. If the LS1 in my 98 Formy ever dies, the plan is one of these under the hood. I will keep lookin in junk yards for one, but a new one (like yours) is a much better deal IMHO, just cant swing it.

Even though I would rather see a traditional Pontiac go in, this is far better than a SBC or a BBC. I wont do it to my 70, but I do like these engines. Its tough to beat the power and economy they offer, and the drivability is nice too. I will however swap any of them I can get my hands on into my trucks.
