In that vid, custom 2.5" stainless system with X-pipe and magnaflow mufflers. Also had S&P shorty headers. Now I have Heads, intake and Stainless Works longtube headers and a new system. The car now sounds 100 times better than this video. The only vid with the new setup I have is on the dyno, if you search "69 dyno" you will find my car.
I can put them in for about $2,300 labor and fabrication (includes wiring harness) - price of engine depends, there is new and used + transmission and tunning if necessary.
how many mpg are you getting with the ls1?

damn almost $2500 in labor alone to swap in an LS1?? im definitely in the wrong business.

Is swapping a T56 into a 1st gen F-body that difficult?

How much did you pay for the car? How much do you think it costs to put a LS1 in 69' and have it work perfectly?
