BBC to Gen V LT1/L86
Had the 462 with a Th400 for a while now and it just inst enjoyable unless your hammering on it. Even had it rebuilt two years ago with a Hyd roller cam and have not driven it, just started it a few times. Looking to make it so i can just cruise with and be more reliable or daily driver ish. I have a few options on the table but ill likely get a L86. I am debating on the 8L90E or a Tremec Magnum. I have 3.70 rear gears. The 8L will save me some money and keep the power brakes. Kind of torn. I believe the T56 will be more enjoyable but the 8L has a lot of benefits also with the super low 1st and the .50 8th. Hard to decide on what to do but the T56 will run about $3-4k more.
