I was just trying to get some thoughts from guys who have had experience with either lsx or 383, trying to weigh pros and cons. I am not sure which way im going to end up going, hell I even got a t-type motor and trans in the garage that I thought about putting in, but its an 85 hot air.
383 vs Lsx

My state, NJ inspects emissions for vehicles with normal registration, regardless of age. They still pop the hoods on older cars, not every time but often during an inspection. You can get QQ plates here to be extempt from testing, not from obeying the law, but they have restrictions that makes them just as big a pain as going though inspections.
As for the carburetor LSX kits, they are intended for pre emission vehicle retrofits. Such as installing a LSX into a 50s or 60s car since they predate low emissions. However in an emissions era car, 1970s to present there are legal problems. The newer the car, the stricter the emissions laws are for it, the less freedom you have to mod it, yes it sucks.
