LSX is referred to by some to indicate any of the GM LS series motors (LS1, LS2, LS6, LS7, etc.). There is an actual LSX block though which is pretty f'ing insane as to the modding potential (designed to handle ~2500 or so hp).

The car is still out west. We will need a couple weeks to complete some small projects and properly road test the car after it returns. Our new website will be up this week. We are eager to bring this package to the public, but we cannot rush the pricing before we're ready.

We'll post more information as soon as we can. Videos will be up to Noah as we didn't shoot any before the car left. We'll be happy to do so when it returns.

Let us know if you have any more questions. This will be a priority for us to complete. All information should be available before the end of the year.

brian,

does this kit require the subframe to be spaced down like ur 240sx kit? is it possible for us to get a brief description of what this kit consists of, what cutting (if and), and what welding (if any) is required? also, what oil pan is used?

i'm guessing this requires a new drive shaft, but can u clarify (cause i know a vette c4 drive shaft bolted up for the second gen rx7 swap)

thanks

Serious...

I couldn't describe, or draw the VQ in the engine bay without the plastic cover.

It's just a cramp lump with hoses.

Just to think, you could do a nice heads/cam package on top of the LS2 and make 480-500rwhp for the balanced N/A setup. You've got LS6, LS3, AFR, TFS, and more to choose from for heads. That engine will be just as reliable as a stock one too. Or maybe a stroker crank for extra down low torque.

Or you could go totally overboard which is what I'm guessing Noah will do. It will be fun to see, that's for sure.
