Re: 72 C10 - BBC vs. LS - What would you do?
Ls for me. I like big blocks, I’ve had a few big blocks, still have one. As said above the ls is a whole other driving experience. Sure the old stuff is easy to work on, the new stuff is actually pretty simple too in a slightly different way. Performance wise, I have more fun driving the 6.2 in my camaro than Most anything I’ve ever driven. VVT is a wonderful thing. If it’s a survivor truck that only needs an engine and everything else is original, sure I’d put the big block in it in a heart beat. Same goes if it’s a truck that is being restored factory, old small block or big block all the way. If it’s a truck that’s already got some mods done to it, LS all the way. My K20 has a 6.0 waiting to go in when I get to that point of my build. With a cam and maybe even a little boost it’s going to be a fun truck.
