What would you run?

Asuming price was no object which motor would you run and why, gen 3 LS7 or a built big block? It would be mostly street with some strip in a first gen.

Lingenfelter 427 twin turbo based on the C5R small block...700-800 rwhp, 25 mpg when you're out of the boost...with a 2 year 24,000 mile warranty..roughly $50,000...I'm asking Santa right now...Hope he hasn't filled the sleigh yet...

Absolutely a big-cube LSx series engine . Big displacement horsepower, with the turn-key ease of a very efficient fuel injection system .

Couple that with a well built T-56 tranny, and you're off to the races . But what a street cruiser you'd have too .
