How much can you get the engines for? I know a couple of different places to get these engines from complete with transmissions, computer, and MAF sensor. Price is normally based on miles.

I have an LT1 in a 72 Chevy chassis and am getting ready to put an LS1 in a 68 Chevy chassis when I get home. The LT1 is by far the easier of the 2 to install, but there are plenty of parts to install an LS motor. I found engine mount adapters on ebay for $39, which allow you to bolt it up to the original style mounts. Biggest thing with either is go with a good wiring harness, I like the Painless harnesses.
