Another Block Option To Make LS Power Swaps Easier?? Check It Out.

Hey Mike!

I can't help but think of the biggest time / money parts of doing an LSX swap, and it's making the block fit the car, then exhaust, electronics, plumbing, etc. If you have to lay out $ for this block, you're not ahead on the $ side of the equation, and you still have to do all the rest of the work. Putting adapters on a block isn't very hard. The expense of the LSX block and pan would be offset by the new hybrid block. Now perhaps the option to use readily available bottom end parts with LSX top end parts is the draw, but I'm not sensing that the LSX bottom end is a problem. Maybe someone needs to clarify the target market to me. I don't think it's legal for LSX racing (wrong block) or for street legal stuff using gen 1 / 2 SBC because LSX heads aren't legal. Help me out here.
