    If the LS1 can be had for cheap, run that one. A lot of people move towards a 5.3/4.8 because most of the time they can be had for half of the price (usually) of an LS1.

    That makes sense. Thanks ducky.

    On that note...

    Happen to know the differences between the LS1 and the LM7/LQ4 timing cover?
    Does it use the same crank pos (think that is in the back, actually?)/cam pos connectors? I THINK it does, but I'm not sure. Also, the long block doesn't have a balancer on it, I'm assuming the truck balancer is interchangeable... can anyone confirm that stuff?

    All the accessories from a 4.8 5.3 6.0 are interchangeable with the 5.7.
