I’m neither an LS hater or lover. Any GM engine is better than what came originally in G bodies. I pulled a 350 out of my Elco and put in a new 383 because it was a dam good deal. There are somethings I see people do on here to they’re cars that I don’t agree with but I almost always don’t voice it here. Live and let live, is a phrase I’ve had drummed into my head for the last 40 years. Let people do they’re cars what they want/can afford. In the mid 70s Cadillac started doing what Ford and Chrysler had been doing for years, they put an Olds engine in the new Seville. Then in the 80s it was Chevy . . small blocks in the big Fleetwoods, up to the current with the CTS-V and Escaldes .

That’s my friggin point. So a Chevy engine LS or LT in a BOP or vise versa, aint no big friggin deal. So long as the car gets saved or upgraded.

I don't care what anyone wants to put in his or her own car, truck, whatever... that's what hot rodding is all about!

I can appreciate keeping everything era correct. Im a stickler for that in the vintage bmx community. I guess i just dont have the roots to feel that same way about cars.
You mean like this fresh out of the box MX.
