I've read your entire thread at least 3 times now! I've started a build thread on 67-72chevytrucks, as I am gathering parts for a LQ9/80e swap in a 87 SWB. I am particularly interested in your swap because it's the closest to mine, and you've put some miles on the clock. I too will be running a 3K stall and 4.10s. For now, I'll be running a bone stock LQ9 with a cam. Later, I'll do heads, intake, etc. I was wondering how your stock LQ4 with the 3k verter and 4.10s feels in the seat of the pants department. Also, your 1/8mi times mean nothing to me because I'm a 1/4 guy. Do you have any idea what your truck would do in the 1/4? I guess I need someone to tell me how awesome it will be, cause I'm starting to backpedal on my build. I'm looking at my budget, and looking down the road to a diamond ring that I should be spending my money on, and my common sense is starting to take over. Hurry! Talk me back into doing the swap!
