i think another plus would be the setup to install a ls6/7 motor. an all al motor with 400+ hp from intake to pan to exhaust for $5500 plus great support, supercharger able, tuneability, good
oil control in
oil pan. some say chevy hurts saleability but i think the ls series of aluminum motors would help. great engine and we're not building fords. just had to throw that out.
