Hey All, just wanted to get some opinions here. I plan on buying an LT1 383 crate engine to replace my current LT1 (77,000 miles). anyone know where my best bet is to get one?? i see a few sites online but dont know which one is the best. Also if i change out to the 383 any other drive train upgrades recommended?? thinking a new tranny. Im looking to make my 94Z a fast street rod and unique. Anyone who has done this swap before that has recommendations/ tips for me it would be great to hear them.

 

well i built my own so i cant help you there.Yeah get a good built tranny and some good rear end gears or even a 12 bolt if you have the money.

 

i would like to stroke my old LT1 myself. Obviously i know i cant do the reboring of the block, but i dont have enough experience i think to do the rest

 

you could always buy the parts and have a machine shop do it for you,obviously find a reputable shop first

 

i know i would have to take the block to a machine shop for the bore, and it would cost me almost the same to buy the parts and time to rebuild it all when i found a pretty good deal from this site.

just make sure its also a good store with good reviews,i know guys who have done the same and have their engine only last 3,000 miles

 

ya ive heard that too......thats why i was asking if anyone knows a good reliable site/ company to buy from. So if anyone out there does please let me know. thanks
