My buddy has a 94 cop car with an LT1. He put on headers, roller
rockers, and an MSD box, and that big car is bad ass. I would stick
with the F.I. and computer if it has it. It will run sweet.

Dan,
The reverse-flow setup almost guarantees you have a modern LT1 (1992-1997)

Have fun with it if you get it!

Brad,
I won't know about the carb VS. injection for two weeks. I
have seen the
truck from a short distance, but never thought the doctor
would offer it. I
have a meeting in Memphis all next week, so it will be the
following week
before I can check it out. I have a mechanic friend that's
working on my 72
Chevelle, and I plan on taking him with me to check it out.
The price is
good. It has huge rear wheels. The LT1, I was told, had a
reverse flow water
pump to cool the heads first, allowing higher compression
rates, keeping
them from having pre-detonation problems. The water pump runs off of a
linkage to the cam. Different for me!
I had a call from Edinburg and was told they have a 66 or 67
Chevelle SS for
sale, and I'm waiting for a price and the specs. Seems deals
are coming out
of the wall!
Thanks!

Tha was going to be my question. Does it have a carburetor or Fuel
Injection? Both are great, but the modern ones will need a
computer and the
old ones need good gas!

1970-73 LT-1 or 1992-96 LT1? Either one would be a
desireable engine.

I have a chance to buy a 1946 Chevy truck with a LT1
Corvette Engine. Does
anyone know if it's a decent engine or should it be thrown away?
