    The LT1 in a Caprice probably has iron cylinder heads-----------

    Even with the amount of keyboard experts harping about the opti spark-never had an issue with that----------

    reverse flow is great -------
    get all the wiring even dashboard studd, computers ( ecm and body ) key (key has an resister in it that mathes the body control puter) wiring back to fuel pump and possibly the complete tank system----------

    transmission?????????

    averaged about 30 LT1 builds per year for several years------we added splayed 4 bolt main caps-----
    Have done manifol mods to put distributer in rear and there are pics on here somewhere of that
    Dave Severson and 53 Chevy5 like this.
    By popular opinions-just a grumpy old man key board bully--But really, if you are going to ask for help on an internet site, at least answer questions about what you are asking about-----

    Seems to be a lot of that these days, I would venture to say that is the reason Pat McCarthy quit posting and why we don't see much of you anymore.
    I don't comment on something I haven't personally done or witnessed being done. Working on aircraft teaches you there is only right and wrong as there is no in between since you are dealing with the lives of others and BS is just that, BS.
