Engine swaps?/turbo's?

Im looking at a 98, Z28. I was wondering if I could swap the engine out for a Ls2, or better yet, ask someone online, that knows more about this then I. Also, would it be better to just stick with my engine i have, and just turbo it?

Re: Engine swaps?/turbo's?

Some mean combos can be put together with an engine swap. A nice 408c.i. motor putting down 500+rwhp can be had without spending an arm and a leg. It's mostly a matter of who you know and better yet, what you know. The more you can do on your own, the less money you end up handing out.

These guys are local to me and are a good sponsor on this site. You could probably get some good advice and pricing by speaking to them...

SSpdDmon, thanks for the recommendation.

papasib,

What are your goals for the new vehicle? What is your budget for the project?
