New Member Considering Corvette Project
Hey guys,
Joined up as I have decided to start a corvette project and a) was curious as to peoples thoughts on my options and, b) regardless of choice of project I will probably need to post for help a few times.
I am trying to choose between either a C3 427/454 big block build or a C4 LS swap. Don't have either yet but am getting ready to pull the trigger on one of them as soon as I decide which one I want to do.
Thanks for having me and thoughts on the two are appreciated. Will be making set of posts in both the C3 and C4 sections as I imagine those are more frequented then here.
