I have only ever heard one bad thing about Monster, and this problem was fixed. I am not doggin you man. I am sure your clutch will be fine.

People have ALOT of issues with Spec's. Next time you are looking for a clutch, look at the Monster clutchs over on Ls1tech.com. They are some of the best clutch's on the market.

Pretty cool project. I wish you the best of luck. There are 2 people I can think of that tried this swap and ended up giving up. The vertical dimensions of an LSX create a lot of problems with trying to make it fit. You might get by with using a cowl hood, but even that may present some issues. If I remember correctly, the intake manifold/piping is going to cause some issues at the front of the hood, which might make is hard to even use a cowl hood. My fiance's dad has a Z31 with a SBC. It was impossible to use a stock hood with this set up because the carb was about an inch too tall. They ended up having to put a scoop (actually looks decent) in order to clear the carb. Good luck man.

Uggg. You are way too caught up in stock numbers. And just so you know, car guys don't use flywheel hp numbers anyways. Do you know the difference between an LS1 and an LS6? The quoted statement just seems ignorant. If you are worried about what GM said the engine made, than buy the LS6... The LS2 will make more power stock, as well as mod for mod, but it would not be worth the extra money to me. You can get 450rwhp out of an LS1 easily, and that is plenty for a street car that weighs less than 3000lbs. There are several people that have gotten 500rwhp out of the LS1 on a stock bottom end.

If you are trying to do it budget friendly, just get an LS1/T56 pull out. An LS1 will be alot cheaper, and can easily put you at 400hp to the wheels with a cam swap.

It will net you under the curve too. I am telling you from experience. If you are keeping the internals stock, then ya, you are probably right. If you ever want to put a decent size cam in it, that 300 bucks for an LS6 intake would be a pretty good idea.

An LS6 intake can easily be found for $275 to $325. Anyone asking $450 is nuts. Check out the classifieds on ls1tech.

Very cool project man. I love the wheels. It definitely does not look like a half ass build. I am trying to decide if I have the balls to do something like this.

Here is a video of the sbc. No light and belt squeal... oh well I was bored so I took a video of the sbc. No light and the belt is squealing but it sounds good

That is an air to water intercooler. I never was too sure who made it, but it was made for the z31's back in the day. I have never seen another one. It was pulled off an AE from a junk yard... pretty good find eh?

Thanks for the invite. I read thru that forum everyday, but mainly reside at 88hybrid.com. I have been meaning to register with z31performance for a while. lol Keep in mind that the 350 z31 is not mine, I have the much less impressive one. I will have to get some videos of that car running down the street sometime.

I can tell you that its a th350... thats about all I know

I also am not super fond of the interior, but for some reason I think the stickers really work on that car. I guess they are better under the hood than all over the car. The car is pretty quick. Its fastest time was 11.27, and that was before he got new aluminum heads. He is actually my girlfriends father. He sold me my first Z, and spread the dizeaze to me. Right now I am dying for an S30 with a V8 swap.

I was bored so I figured I would post up a few pictures of a 350 z31 since I have not seen many. This car is not mine, but belongs to a buddy who is afraid of computers lol.

And last but not least here is the Z31 museum driveway.... (My girlfriend's house... her z is the red one in the driveway)
