But... The S54 will make 50-75hp more than an S50B32 in stock form (software and exhaust modifications only). The S50B32 head is pretty close to maxed out stock, whereas the S54 was badly bottled up by emissions. And you can buy an S54 for $3-4k pretty easily.

Net-net, there's a reason why this engine bay looks a little different today than it did when you and Clyde were over here.

The fact that I took this one in trade helped too.
That is a good looking motor.
