Hello from New Mexico, I am new to the forum. I have been planning on installing a LS1 in my new truck that I am building, but I have been noticeing that 5.7 low milage Hemi's are going for less that LS1's and I would love to have another Hemi. The decession will be made on a few things.
1. If I can find a wiring harness that won't break the bank. The one's I have found cost around $800.00. I have found LS1 harnesses for $200.00.
2. If I can find a StreetRod style floor shifter that will work with the 5 speed auto . Checked the B&M site and found nothing dito on Locar and Geni. Any ideas? Would a factory shifter be able to be modified with a tall stick or are the detents weak?
I would love to install a Hemi for the shock and cool factor.
