I have had a SBC with carb, big cam, and re geared 901 trans.
Used the renegade kit & cooling system. Was ok with the usual carb tuning issues and tough to keep cool. With the H gear swap in the 901 had very good cruising rpm.$ Upgraded to a FAST EZ EFI system, made a big difference in starting and driving manners. $$ Upgraded to a Boxster S 6 speed. Now shifts like a new Toyota and had good gear spacing. $$$ Now have a 07 LS2 with the Boxster trans, Used Kennedy and Renegade parts. DBW throttle and custom harness, tune. Night and day compared to the SBC. Scary fast. $$$$$ Have no experience with the Subaru swaps, Seems like a very good choice. I guess its what your end desire is. I seem to hang around the street rod, hot rod show crowds a lot. They see an LS in the car and will stop and check out. I feel a Subaru just looks stock and they just walk on by as they don't know what they are looking at. David |
