Engine Swap vs Rebuild LT1
Hey guys, I have recently starting thinking about doing an engine swap on my '95 Z and was wondering first off, what engine would be a good fit for this car in terms of work needed for the swap, power, torque, etc and secondly, if it was smarter to do a complete engine swap or if I should just consider rebuilding the badass LT1. Thanks for your help!

Installing any other engine besides the LT1 will require additional work, both mechanical and electrical. With proper mods the LT1 can be very competitive and streetable. Build it out to a 383, or even a 427 if want lots of torque.
