If you're wanting to use LS1 pistons you will need to bore the block out. I would say find a junk yard pull out 6.0/80e with lowish miles that way you hve and excelent trans and a motor that will take very well to this mods. Should be a good little motor when done.
Either Mechanical Engineering or something in Political Science. Not sure if I want to design and build things or try and fix this damn country.

I know I'll need to bore the block out but a rebuild will cost me far less than a new block, transmission, and whatever else I need to make it work. I don't do enough hot rodding or pulling heavy stuff to need a 4L80E, plus I hate the tall first gear. I figure I shouldn't be putting out enough power to destroy a 60 with just an overbore and cams.
