Which E30 should I LS1 swap? Red or White?

[D-rock]

yumm red!

[greanthumb]

I said white BECAUSE it looks like shit. True sleeper status right there

yeah buddy... i like your line of thinking

[e30damen]

Red! It already looks good, so give it some power!!

Whichever chassis is cleaner.

you don't want to do all of that work only to hate the car the engine sits in. (ask me how I know... and my swap isn't even cool)

a word from the wise eh?? VERY good point. Thats what makes it such a hard decision. Although the white chassis is cleaner/more in original tact... id hate to chop it up for the same reason. i feel that chopping the red one wouldnt be such a sin(since it seems to have ALREADY been through quite a bit).
I always lean toward the red because of the reasons above. At the end of the day, i love both cars. Ill keep one mostly stock for everyday driving.... and the other one will be my weekend corvette killer. i have a feeling you'll be seeing these cars around the forums for quite a while. As i intend on keeping both.

Pretty sure an LS1 engine isn't trash that's for sure...great engines. I'd say go red, but like the idea of the sleeper status.
