Sorry for the delay. Anyways some basics about 13.5 - 14.0 comp a modern solid lifter cam about 268 - 274 dur @ .050 some decent rods (eagle or such) single plane tall manifold 950 carb. should be a killer set up, now a 8 inch convertor a set of small slicks should be over the top for most ls's. It would be a cheap build and easy on parts. Look for used convertor, manifold and carb. slicks and use a trans shield. You will just love it. And a stroker is always great if you got the extra $$$. And it is fully streetable.
