I'm hunting round for a Chevy V8 for a project and wondered if anybody could recommend the best way to source. Any good Uk suppliers or builders that you would recommend? Is it worth sourcing from USA or Australia? A turn key engine is appealing as it saves me messing with after market management. Looking for LS engine preferably @400bhp. Any advice is much appreciated.

Probably the best prices new.

A friend knows of a good supplier of LS engines, ex. Monaros, have you a box, if not manual or auto ?
Monaro VXR spec would be perfect, but moderately lower or higher spec would be ok too. I don't need a gearbox, UN1 transaxle being used 🙂
