cass it can be removed. and you can buy my compressor PM or for faster email or text me logandbrewer@gmail.com or 205-365-0091. I can use my GM stock compressor location since the down pipe runs through there.

I don't expect to be spoonfed. But my time attack build is here.
https://my350z.com/forum/east-canada...onversion.html
I don't need Air Conditioning
I don't need VDC but I'd like ABS to keep me from flatspotting tires.
Otherwise I just need a bad *** motor/ trans combo that will allow my car to lay waste to everyone because roadracecar. Please help my Z demolish the competitions.
After reading a couple of nights this is what I am thinking I will need to buy so far.

-Fueled Racing Swap kit.
-Fueled Racing Clutch Hydraulics Kit?
- Aftermarket clutch and Flywheel?
-Fueled Racing Aluminum or Carbon Fibre drive shaft?
-Upgraded Radiator?

-LS2 T56 drop out. 2005 or 2006 GTO.
- Get GM VATS system disabled.
- Custom Harness?

Honestly. It's not the cost. I think it's a good $ to performance ratio. It's my lack of wrench turning experience that has me spooked about it. Still working on it.

Í have to admit. I'm too scared to do this right now. I just want to finish my track season. I''m in first place and clinch the "national title"" with one more 4th place finish. Im going to drop in a $600 motor with my friends to get rolling and gain some confidence and tackle this swap after.

After Quamens shiny new painted bay my mock up pics look boring.
mocked up snyperz's turbo kit tonight
Going to have to make a new passenger side mount to clear the massive 4 inch downpipe but it all fits on a Gsedan just as it did on the 350z
Have to get a different thermostat and water neck and come straight out instead of like factory.

It was a brand new one from jegs that was welded but with a little searching i found this from the same guys i got my alternator and powersteering bracket from. they do alot of sand rails.
Here is the difference in motor location between in the sikky kit and the fueled racing kit if anyone wants to know. Bryan settle was asking me a bunch of questions about the kit since they have no pictures.
Sikky kit placement
Fueled racing kit - sits alot further back

Well luckily i never had to try and drop the trans with the sikky kit but its so simple to pull the motor and trans out at once its not even worth the time or effort to try to take the trans out with out the motor. IV gotten the motor down and out in 45min disconnecting the front end and everything.
