I'm pulling the 13B-REW out of the FD i just picked up.... But I'm putting a 20b in it... and if\when that blows I'll probably build an all alluminum + lightened rotor short crank 3 rotor for it. The only piston engines I would ever consider putting in would be a viper V10 or a BMW M5 v10 and I'm not sure they would even fit.

I've cleaned out most of the inflammatory comments. This is NOT a debate thread. It is a poll. Keep it clean or it will be closed. Thanks.

the LS1 has made my FC such a wonderful daily driver...super fast, really torquey, extremely reliable, quiet at low rpm driving but loud at WOT, unique because I did the swap and theyre arent many around, fun to drive, easy to work on and its one hell of a beast when given some throttle. yet, the LS1 in my FC right now would be plucked out in a heartbeat to go into any FD that I find for cheap, whether the FD is running or not. I want an FD and I want an LS1T56 in it, someday, there's no question in my mind about that... theyre such a sexy body style and an amazingly capable chassis.
