46 GMC - great input. I wasn't being clear, but for a vehicle that's driven 3-4 times/month was wondering if the LS would be less troublesome over the long run. Haven't done much research yet(that's the purpose of the post) but hoping there is a "hot rod" chip/setting so don't have to fuss with all the modern emission kit.
Thanks
A carbureted, HEI, Chevy V8 is the least troublesome. BBC or SBC. If you are looking for least potential trouble with a V8, that's it. (no wires, sensors, computers, chips, MAP, PCM, MAF, COP, plastic...) The best HP is 70-72 usually.(pre-smog) A few little things, like aluminum intake and headers/duels, makes some added cheap/easy HP. I will say that the offset for all those electrics that fail, is that OBD codes enable us to fix a lot of things ourselves. We could NEVER figure it out without a reader we can rent for free. (and UTUBE)
