best swap ever some people think its rediculous but the chevy ls1 is one of the best swap engines there is, reliable, has power, good fuel economy, and affordable, you can get a jdm turbo engine which costs alot and is difficult to work with or you can get one of these beasts
hell yeah man, good job, and sweet swap, something close to mine :P, I live in the middle east, and Im about to finish my LS1 but Auto :( on my 1992 S13, some wiring and small parts are missing and im DONE :)
hey man what do you think about a 93 with an lt1 will it still be as fast or faster as when it was in my 94 z28 ? and what where you looking at as far as cost figures would greatly appreciate feedback
common sense says it would be faster. take that 94 z28 and shave off 600+lbs of weight and that's how the 240 would feel with the same motor setup. cost? i have no clue, it can vary greatly depending on your level of fabrication skill and access to parts.
yeah that makes sence well i go to wyotech rite now for custom chassie fabrication and high performance power trans so i will let you know how it turns out i can assure you that if i go thru with it it will be turbo the lt1 is bieng rebuiult i want to bore it and stroke it to 383 what do you think? well let me know man cuz u seem like the dude to talk to because youve got a nasty car i give you props
383 is generally a pretty good motor but beyond that i can't tell you much, i don't have any hands on experience with one. i'm plenty happy with my stock 346. today on the dyno it put down 355whp/345tq with stock exhaust manifolds and very little tuning. good luck with your project.
that is correct. i've installed an LS1 engine, the same engine found in the C5 corvette/1998-2002 camaro SS/WS6 trans-am. it makes lots of power, lots of torque and it's basically stock.
thanks. while i do like music in some videos i wanted people to be able to hear the exhaust and realize there is in fact a V8 under the hood. the camera is just mounted to the rollbar diagonal using a camera mount from i/o port racing.
