Hi I'm Chris in Atlanta,
Is anyone working on putting the LS1 in an MGB? I like how light the Rover
engine is (300 lbs. correct?)... but I'm thinking the LS1 without A/C or power
steering is going to be around 400lbs (vs. the 1st generation small block Chevy
which is over 500 lbs.). I've done quite a bit of searching but haven't found
anyone doing the swap (yet). LS1s/T56s are plentiful as well.
I gave my brother my first car, a '77 MGB in sandglow. He's just letting it
sit so I'm thinking about getting it back. The 1800 ran fine before but I
think a V8 would be more my speed (my other projects are an '80 El Camino with
a 406 SBC / Doug Nash 5 speed and a '68 Chevelle SS396).
Thanks!
Chris
