my lower tub is for ls1 port heads. can I get a lower tub that will bolt up ls3 heads and reuse the upper and leave the blower where its at? I started with the ls2 gto blower

id feel guilty if I hurt a custom cam in a $100 through away longblock

I guess I should also mention I was gonna run the 80e stock convertor till I get a real motor assembled. should be painfully tight LOL

That's not a bad fit for your setup though. Remember Trever 1t? It was a bad little truck for the time!

just as an update, I ended up sticking a LS6 cam in there. also tore the motor down to regap the rings and have a keyway cut in the crank. ended up using LS9 head gaskets and ARP head studs
