Smallblock454, thanks so much for the links! Very inspiring reading!

I actually read all of the posts by BoxsterLS376. That is what convinced me to go buy this tiny beast of a car. Lol! I had no idea I even wanted one until I heard 50/50 weight distribution, 6 speed, cheap oil changes, etc.

Very much appreciate the link for the tach correction unit. That opens my field of possible engines so much. Stuttgart Muscle had indicated I needed a 58x reluctor wheel. Also found out somewhat recently that a Vortec is also workable. Once you start to research a whole world of swap ideas come to find.

Now to narrow it down to a proper displacement. "No replacement for displacement" comes to mind but then reality sets in. I don't need 600+ horsepower at this stage of life. I just love the sound of a proper V-8 and a stick shift. I'd be happy with anything equal to stock for now, or perhaps a bit of a bump to say 350ish or so.
