Too expensive. You could make more power cheaper building your LT1.

It would be a pita to find too, but would look pretty cool with it under the hood!

It would definately be a pretty cool project, but you would most likely be better off building a LT1 up in the long run.

I would bet it takes some serious work to make it fit. Buy the one for 6k and lets see what happens!!! You would probably have the only 4th gen F-body with a LT5.

A good friend of mine has 2 lt5 motors, he just picked up a 89 iroc to put one in should be a diffrent build and it looks cool in a fbody.
