Nice truck. That motor was from a B body right ( friend has a 95 impala SS said the cast iron heads indicate it is from one). So what are other plans for it?

sqrbdy · 04-25-2008, 09:11 AM

I have always been a fan of the LT1's. The trick is getting a nice tune on it.
Here's a pic of my last LT1 and what I put it in.
