I also love the 1st gen motors, had long talks with a buddy that builds at your level, but I couldn't spend over $10g's to get over 500hp.

Your truck will look awesome with a LS motor, which version would you get, any power adders? The E-Rod came out after I ordered my motor, it had me second guessing my choice...or a truck 6.0l with a Magnaflow blower, gotta go by another lotto ticket. Guess the '40 is on the front burner now??? Keep us in the loop.

There is an adapter to use the stock small block valve covers on the ls motors, here is a link ---> http://www.compperformancegroupstore...gineComponents

Jegs, summit, speedway has them as well

I don't think I would spend 150+ to add a place that has potential to leak. There are a lot of options out there for LS valve covers these days that look so much better.

Well anything has a potential to leak!! but I do agree that there are alot of options out there, but as far as what looks better, that will be up to the buyer..

Nice

I have to ask...did someone catch the still shot right as you applied the brakes or did you go back and re-stage that picture? Either way it's a cool picture

**superflysteiny** · 11-26-2011, 09:54 PM

Staged

I could have gone a lot further with it but she started to turn sideways and I did not want to hit the wall.

Sweet!

Runs good enough (way good) for your Pops if that is still the plan?

Save the LS3 idea for the next truck build IMO.

When do we see the 40 Ford finished? Was it getting a HEMI (Gasser Style) or a 2bbl 289?

**oldman3** · 11-27-2011, 08:05 AM

Greaaaaat....Jim

Hey Eric, Wade the guy from Ar that bought the Last Chance truck, has a LS3 swap in his 67 stepside, He loves it! I have pics of the install, looks amazing

smbrouss70 · 11-27-2011, 02:14 PM

In my opinion, this is a better option for the old valve covers on an LS. You don't have to worry about the stamped steel valve covers leaking, and they hide the coils for you without having to relocate them.

custompaint870 · 11-27-2011, 02:17 PM

this looks much cleaner to me tho

This is a great example, clean and simple...SuperFly's truck is so slick this motor would be perfect. The engine shop ad even looks classy and 480 hp with out power adders is stout.
