Anyone know of any performance upgrades out there for the 8.1 engines. And what is it capable of, hp and torque i mean. I am thinking about a swap into my 69 chevelle.
thanks
Josh
I like the thought of the big block, but it is expensive. The big block looks good under the hood...I've found the conversions at a decent price, but 340 hp seems a little weak for me for so many ci.

Well maybe the 6.0 is the way to go. Yeah, the 8.1 does have something like 455 lbs torque. I wonder how it would perform against the 6.0 in my 69.
