Re: LS or old school?

Don't get worried about the cubic inches with the ls engines. Most 4.8's are making more power than a cammed 350. The 5.3 is more than capable and will get decent mileage. The 6.0 is a tad more thirsty and obviously will make more power but the 5.3 can easily make 400-450hp with doing a lot of work to it. The 6.0 will be a lot easier to find with a 4l80e already attached though. Whatever you get make sure you get everything. The accessories, wiring and computer. The little stuff will eat you alive at the auto parts store.
