Re: Help with vortec worth?

I bought the same combo for my 68. There's not much performance diff in 5.0-5.7 that a few bolt ons and comp tuning won't fix. It depends on what you want,I wanted a mild performance combo with reliablity to cruise. Besides, a stock F.I. small block in a stepside like mine should roast the tires when you want to and get 15-20 mpg on the highway JMO. Anyway I paid $500 for a 98 5.0 with tranny,comp,and harness with 58,000 miles.
