Thanks everyone for your comments so far...I really appreciate the willingness to share your experience and knowledge...I'd also welcome comments from anyone who has installed a L76 with all standard L76 ECU/wiring loom?

As per my original thread, I'm trying to balance a very good performance engine, with great street manners and at the same time keep the install as simple as possible and I've heard from a number of sources the LS1 ECU/wiring is heaps easier than the L76...It also looks like there's a number of people on this forum either doing the conversion from LS1 to L76 or contemplating it...To my inexperienced eye, I can see 2 reasons for this...because it makes a lot of sense for someone who's alreay got a LS1 and it's a very logical performance improvement over the standard LS1 set up or it's just a good idea from a tuning/simplicity perspective to have the L76 mechanicals and LS1 controls/electricals?

I definitely want new gear and as I'll get the roller in '08, I suppose the newer GM L76 does have appeal...I don't know anything about the LS2 or LS7 options?

Phil...Starting from scratch...would you prefer the L76 with LS1 ECU/wiring options or a pure L76 install?

Sideshow, it seems you'd lean towards the standard complete L76 rather than try to use the LS1?

Thanks again for your comments...

Regards......Paul
