why would you sell it if its soo good?

I don't understand why someone would put that much work in a vehicle and then sell it unless you just weren't happy with it.

but its a twin turbo eater!

I mean, just a simple rebuild and two turbos and you have a 1000hp engine. Isn't that what every Corvette owner does?

But if it were DOHC, it'd be 1500hp.

Why would you do a V8 swap? And, if you feel the need to do it, why make it a Chevy? It's easy enough to put a Nissan V8 in it. Cross breeding is no good. Before I even did that, though, I'd put an RB26 in it. The VG30 is good for 1000 HP, which ain't too shabby.

the chevy engine was a good choice. the LT1 wasnt. LSX is the way to go.

This post is in no way or form implying that the Nissan 300ZX engine is insufficient. The original poster does not take responsibility for any actions concerning LSX and Nissan 300ZX used in conjunction, nor the actual fusion of an LSX into a Nissan 300ZX.

1979 Chevy truck engine with a 4-barrel is the way to go!
