Re: Bags or LS sawp? Opinions

LS2! Drivetrains are only low mileage once! Bags can be bought at anytime.

Re: Bags or LS sawp? Opinions

Bad Burb, Once you do the LS2 swap, you might want to redo your suspension according to your engine performance goals. Bags might not be the option you are looking for.
But if you want, I will buy some bags and you buy the motor and then we can swap parts even steven.

Site Moderators; I am only kidding. No sales transactions involved. Bad Burb can just give me the engine combo. Problem solved

If the price is close....Dropmembers front and back!! You cant tell if it has an LS-2 when its laid out and the hood is shut!! Besides the ol' ladys Trailblazer SS w/ LS-2 gets me speeding tickets all the time...more money in the long run!!

Well If I go Ls2 I was thinking of ditching the bags idea for the Dropmember C4 w/ coilovers and something different for the rear.

Thank you all for your input!

No problem. Just remember when you tire of the LS2; I will take it off your hands.
