Half of LS1 tech is dbw vs cable threads. Dbw is easier for swaps.

How’s it going to work with your trans? I forget if the LQ4 is both Gen III and Gen I-II bolt pattern.

bolting it to the 200-4r wont be difficult. only concern is getting the TV cable to actuate properly on a drive by cable throttle body.

yep after i fractured the pistons in the trusty 350 this was the only real option. My better three quarters, Yamahog was very supportive of the expenditure.

Like his collection of large plastic tubs were his single biggest contribution to our combined household and I’m not sure why he has so many

IIRC all Chevy V8's use the ‘55-up pattern.

All built after ‘55, I mean.

No, I mean, they’re plastic tubs. They don’t need a reason to be awesome. They just are. Accept it, Yama. Accept the zen of the plastic tub.
