advice on engine combo

[cooperhw]

I would have to vote for the LS motor for what you are wanting to do with it. I have a LS-2/T-56 with a stage 3 SNS cam in my 67 Chevelle. I love it. I would love to do autocross with it, but my rear tires are wayyyy to big, fat, squishy, and close to the quarterpanels. I have thought about registering it in the autocross. Taking off the line and doing a solid smoky burnout to the first corner, letting off and idleing through the corner, the more smoky burnouts to the next corner. Time would be terrible but I bet I would have a huge smile on my face.
By the way, I am huge BBC fan. Had a ton of em. Have a 496 BBC/glide in my racecar. Great for straight line, but not the twisties.
