Nice start. Best of luck with the ls swap. I don't have any experience with it but make sure to ask your questions here. There's plenty of guys that have done it.

I know not all LS motors are the same which one you thinking of using? and you will need the trans and all front brackets, and wiring

Re: Just getting started on my 67

I was at a couple of junk yards in Tulsa this past weekend. They were selling complete engines (you pull it) for $200. You might be able to get a decent deal if you have the ability to pull it and transport it yourself.
