| Hi all, I have a 92 roadmaster wagon with a 350 tbi. I absolutely love the car and drive it whenever i can. Im looking for more power though. The budget is 2500-3000. LT1 conversion?(I know where i can get a 96 ta lti with 17,000 miles still in chasis for 2,000) LS1 conversion?( I know where i can get a complete swap for 1600with 109,000miles) or a stroker 350 tbi. Car is driven often , but will be put away for the winter. Im buying a 373 gear swap kit from the previous owner. thanks. The trans is rebuilt, has new dual exhaust with flowmaster mufflers. | |

| Truck engine,more grunt down low,LS2 more money and higher rpm horsepower!Considering the weight of our wagons,I am going with a 6 litre and a 4l80.Eventually that is! Jim |

that supercharger is a pretty interesting alternative. I wonder if my motor is up to it or have to start fresh? car has 126,000 miles, no noises or smoke. Had an oil analysis done on last oil change and passed with flying colors. Oil pressure is around 50 cold and drops to 15-20 hot at idle and jumps up to 30-35 off idle. thanks for the link , pretty cool | |
