not sure yet, been talking to a couple local gm guys and they seem to think that the lt1/ls1 gear sets are fairly easy to come buy so i may end up looking for one of those and swapping it in then selling it

So I got the Cobra last Saturday...and It has spent more time on jackstands in my garage than actually driving the streets so far LOL.
Fixed parking brake.
Installed FW adjuster and clutch quadrant
Broke all O2 sensors loose
Broke all midpipe clamps loose
Broke spark plugs loose (only to find some swamped in oil...looks like I'll be doing valve cover ring gaskets)
And now I wait for the new **** to show up Tuesday from American Muscle.
Oh, anyone interested in JBA 3" mufflers? As soon as the car is squared away I'm dumping these loud *** JBA mufflers and going Magnaflow.

So I finally got around to putting longtubes on the Cobra....too bad it isnt my car anymore 
We did a FRPP HD clutch while we were up there, because we all know how fun transmission jobs are with LTs. BBK LTs, BBK h, and flowmaster catback. Deleted EGR and SAI. Was quite the adventure, but got it all knocked out and no exhaust leaks. Apparently a nice head gasket oil seepage however....
so jealous
