nice. i just acquired a modded ls1+t56 for $900 from a friend. im planning on putting this in an fd, but your threads (which ive been following) are making me think twice. from what i understand, hinson supercars is making a conversion for the z. also, check out v8rx7forum.com where a guy talks about a g35 w/ an ls motor he came across. but he showed no proof. anyways, great job, and lots of patience. looks terrific, that thing is gonna screaaaam

good stuff!! I will go ahead and take that LS2 off your hand when you are done since you wont be needing it much longer wouldnt want you to have to lug it around

Dude he is waiting to show it off at SEMA...Patience is a virtue. I love how people like you ***** about not having enough pictures when he has been without his car for 6 months. he is just as anxious to see it finished as we are. I am sure we will see more pictures once more are available.

Not 2 years...6 months....it actually took Hinson 3 weeks to do the complete swap and mine was the first. The delays were all because of me waiting for parts to arrive or sponsors to fulfil their obligations.

Yes 3 weeks from start to finish....that is a testament to customer service if I have ever seen one

You probably answered this in your other thread, but how much does the LS2 weigh? Congrats, I bet you can't wait to drive it again.

its an aluminum block right? from what i gather he gains very little weight about as much as if you dropped in a few snails. i could be completely wrong though.
