I feel like the real reason guys want to put an ls into their old cars or anything for the matter is because they dont know how to work on older style engines with carbs and timing light degreeing the cam etc the "tuning" part of an old engine. These younger guys literally have no ida to truly work on them so they kust tell their buddies "yeah i can put an ls in and have someone tune it" its easier for someone who wants to try and act like he knows whats hes doing to have someone do all the work for them and then calling it their own.

I had a 383 long block assembled for my ‘76 corvette roller cam, roller rockers, Pete Jackson gear drive, 10.1:1 crank wiper, windage tray, baffled oil pan, , Air gap intake, Sniper EFI, Full Hyperspark ignition system, and a few more goodies. I am looking forward to some LS confrontations.

In a vehicle that never had a small bock, stock for stock, the LS will make more power for only marginally more money. Assuming you get your parts from a junkyard, you’re 600 for engine and trans on either one. Both options require the same components to run. This guys added cost of the intake and carb for an ls and the coil controller is irrelevant, because there is no real reason to run a carb on a modern fuel injected engine. Either option you have to either buy mounts or fabricate your own. The additional cost from the LS comes from buying a computer that has had security deleted, or buying a device to do it yourself (which costs $80). Is the sbc simpler to swap? Yes. Is it a better choice? No. I have no hate for the sbc, but I do get tired of people who preach how much greater the sbc is over the LS. Those people talk about how these people only do it because they don’t know how to work in carbureted engines, when they only do sbc swaps because they don’t know how to work on these modern computerized engines. Neither option is better than the other. It all depends on application

❤I've been saying this for ever. This was the best break down ever. I'd get paid subscription from you. My buddy just bought a Nova with a Blueprint 383 and Sniper and it's fast fast. Few of the guys have built 6.0 ls with allegedly 600+ hp and they are all saying something is l isn't right. The 383 feel way faster.
@ceceliarodrigues
LS’s can make great power yes. But LS movement is getting old lol. Any motor can make big power with deep pockets. But the LS guys must forget that guy’s dragging in the 60’s and 70’s we’re running 9’s low 10’s back then. I kept my 350 in my c-10. Love it lol. Love this video too 👍

You just can't beat the simplicity of the sbc ...and ease to work on with minimal tools ...especially if you get broke down on the side of road ...
@camelotct
You can never beat the classic look of a 350
@andy3590
Just my 2 cents ls engines are way to hyped up. Yes tge did fix some problems that the first gen had and are stronger but they have there own problems. Never seen carbon built up in a first gen intake but every ls you take apart the intake is full of carbon and oil.
@nathanwood1567
Grew up on small blocks, and currently have a carb swapped LS3. I have no feelings either way. I love both. However, the AFR Enforcer heads are no where close to a stock LS3 head flow wise. Your enforcers flow about 250cfm@600 lift on intake side. The LS3 flows 300cfm bone stock. Ill also say this with confidence, ive had s built 406 sbc and this LS3. Conparing the 2, the LS3 may be down on torque just a tiny bit on the low end, but buddy let me tell you, pound for pound its faster woth the LS3 than the sbc. And has been more reliable. Plus, with the carb on it i tune it myself so best of both worlds. Thats a solid snall block your building. Good luck with the build
@joshuagarvey9362
Orrr you can find a 400 sbc and do the same shit and have WAY more torque.Bye bye LS.I love putting these LS guys in the places with my 406.Simple torque and adjust my rear view mirror.Oooo Oooo I just made over 500 lbs of torque on all motor.Simpke science.Great video thanks

Appreciate this video. I’m working on a 71 c10 and learning as I go. 350 seems like the way to go

Well you tipped the scale, ive been going back n forth what to do, i have a tierd 1976 block 350 in my 92 c1500 hotrod truck that froze n popped a block plug...is it cracked? But it is on a tierd tapered .030 bore but i have a good 88 4 bolt main roller with a tierd stock bore in my cellar from my old truck. I found some .030 sealed power .125 dome hyper pistons for $211 (the dome is because have heavily worked over 76cc heads, those pistons have a 9.35:1 with 76cc so would still keep me above 9:1 with the valve de-shrouding) anyway redline said $260 for bore and finish hone, crank and rods seem fine prob take crank to work and polish it on the lathe with dynabrade pipe polisher and toss arp bolts in the rods with the usual diy mods or reuse my old rods that already have arp bolts so for around a grand i should beable to have a better than stock fresh bore 355 or find a 5.3/6.0 and swap it in... I would have to do buy schoenfield obs LS swap headers that are $400ish and upgrade my fuel system and deal with the ecu headaches or do the whole carb swap deal, i can say the Qjet on a 5.3 thing isnt nuts it sounds awsome! They are my favorite carb only carb i like better is the holley 4165 The 4165 650cfm mech secondary double pumper Qjet replacement is the goat street 350 carb imo. I had The 4175 vac secondary version also it sucked donkey dicks. I had aodified 800 qjet for years but it really did not like the duration and overlap of my cam and the original torker just aggravated it, it made great power but ran horribly rich all the time and about 8 mpg i tossed a cheapo used 600 edlebrock on and it ran beautifully great drivability still had lumpy idle but didnt burn my eyes and mpg went to around 14ish but a noticable loss in top end sack, but twice the fuel economy said lets roll with this for awhile. But short story long im just keepin it old school. I also have a nice 95 mustang gt (last year of the great 5.0) i want to make less slow so fresh 5.0 shortblock and AFR 185 enforcers howards cam and any good intake i can find thats not $1000 so i can get Maybe 350-375 hp hopefully...so every dollar i save is another dollar i can spend on that engine build and being a regular ol blue collar working jerkoff every last dollar is needed.
@12oclockTaran
Loved this video man! You're funny as hell and informative
@andrewroberts7700
Definitely good info. I have a built sbc400 in my Foxbody but just went out and bought a 5.3 I wanna turbo 😬
@bass4life294
Loving every second of rebuilding my gen 1 350sbc. Found out my 75c10 has 76 Camaro engine and it’s always fun explaining why my truck sounds like a 70s Camaro lol.
@jarvislarson6864
Ive been on the same page as u and preaching to people that go on and on and on about the ls and it is a great engine but the small block is the best bang for the $buck$ hands down.
@philmartin4863
Awesome video. I wish I saw it before my ls swap. I was going to redo the original motor but it was only a 305. I probably should’ve taken the money got a 350 punched out to a 383 n had been better off but wats done is done. I will do that on my next project tho.
