Is it the side oiler or the center oiler. Not that it really matters, its a badass car any way.

I read they weigh 2600 lbs. with the iron block 427. I was thinking it would be cool to take the aluminum 427 C5R race block from Lingenfelter and stuff that in there, but I'm sure it would start to get expensive.

How's the ride quality & driving experience in those kits? Is there a top that you can put up on it, or is there none?
