Got another engine

[franv8]

Project 'Get my Vette back on the road' made a major leap forward now I've got the car and a spare engine in the same workshop together - now just got to do the job.

I managed to get hold of an 89 50k miles L98 for £600, so as long as it works will be happy!

So I could be back in V8 land for the summer shows etc!

Anyone put a later L98 into an early car? I'm going to put my injectors on it, but rest will be the same.

Goodluck with the build,my plenum,injector housings and heads are still in America at the moment and once they are done we should be on the road about the same time.
By the way i had to buy new stock heads to start from scratch $$$$$,Ouch! cos the last jerk that touched them didnt do them properly,standard heads make 255cfm PROPERLY modified heads run around 340cfm,my radically worked(f****d up) heads made 285cfm.

Let us know how it goes.
