I agree with Mario what a waste of time and a joke. THe only thing this car (if you can get it running) is good for is drag racing. Even then you'll need to add a bunch of ballast in the rear. Maybe someone can pull the weight of the cast iron 454, but I know it's a bunch. The all alluminum LS1 makes a lot more sense if your intent on a V8.

I think I'll put my 6.2 Powerstroke in my 1st gen.;)

Well.....I'll give the guy an 'E' for Effort....but yeah, I have to agree with all those that say to get the car, put the rotary back in it, and sell the BBC engine. That really is a clean looking FB from what pics are posted.

You can get the same displacement in a smaller package and much lighter weight in a warhawk block. If your going to hack up a car at least do it right. That car is going to plow around every corner.
