I called them today and they are all sold out. I did find one set on ebay for $300. I am glad that I bought them when I did.

I got my kit in today. I need to adjust the light but it is a very nice kit. $150 is a good deal.

I had to use a hammer on the trans tunnel, but only in a few spots. The 4l60e is tight but it fits. qwik240z if you do not want the 4l60e I will buy it from you.

JOEY the LS1 will give you a 4 cyl tac output, I used all aftermarket gauge's so it was not a problem.

You might want to use a camaro or a griffin radiator. They will cool better than a stock 4 core radiator. I have used stock 4 core radiator and they work ok but not as good as a griffin. You will not need the oil presure switch.

I looked at the car today but He was not there. He has the motor and trans in. I took the Sanderson headers over for a test fit, but I will have to try when he is at the shop. JOEY your car looks good, looks like only a few more weeks for the swap?

Congrats Briguy280Z, I had to take one of my cars down to the Referee after I did a motor swap on one of my cars. It is not as hard as some people make it out to be. I would like to know how you got away with the ABS. I want to do a LS1/6speed swap into a 93 RX7 very soon so I will be down the same road.

I paid $700 for mine, but they should be less now.

Joey Are you doing the swap at your shop? Let me know if you get the motor in and I will stop buy with some sanderson headers for a test fit.

This is long but give it a try. It might not work for dial up internet.

I did not use them for my LT1.

When I wanted to do my Ls1 swap I called up Johns Car, but I did not want to spend my $$ with someone that is very rude on the phone. After all I am trying to give them some money. If I wanted to keep ac I would of made my mounts just like Cyres, Maichor. They use the Corvette mounts and it lets you keey the stock alternator and ac loacations. I did not want ac so I made some very simple mounts that will bolt right into the stock z-car x-member. The only bad thing is that I had to move my alternator to the top pass side. Johns car mounts the motor further forward, this is why they are able to keep the alternator in the stock loacation. $295 is not bad for some custom mounts.

You will like the auto, they are alot faster than the 6-speed ls1 swaps. You might want to put a transgo shift kit in your 4l60e before you do the swap.
-
Are you going to use the auto or a 6-speed? I like your car, very clean.

Tim The best time witht he Lt1 was a 11.78@114
mods to the lt1 where ported heads,cam, 52mm TB, 1.6RR, electric Water pump. I had more $$ in the LT1 than I do in the LS1.
Ls1--mods--only mod to the motor is a small cam from MTI. I hate to say it but it looks like the LS1 is a better motor, and this is coming from someone that had a LT1.

Zfan I am also using the 235/60/15 drag radials I have found that 11 psi works best for them. I am using the stock 4l60e trans with a shift kit. I am also using 200/225lb springs on the car.
qwik240z I want to go 10's without NOS, I need to get my mph up to about 122mph. Computer is tuned when I went to the dyno.
Turbo Meister Thanks--I think the car will get faster-- I just need to get my 60' in the 1.4's.

Only motor mod so far is a small cam. car weight is 2580 lbs this is using the tracks scale.

Went to the track today to make some more runs with the LS1 swap. Car was running very good. I also have some vidio of the run that I want to post as soon as I learn how.
60' 1.58-----Drag radials
1/8 7.276 @ 93.024mph
1/4 11.483@116.95mph
Also can some one tell me how to put the vidio up on the internet?

qwik240z If you want to keep the stock ac you might have to mount your motor using the corvette mounts. This is the way that Cyres mounted his motor. The stock Datsun motor mount X-member will have to be cut for the ac to fit. My stock Exhaust manifold fit ok but I wanted the larger headers. Good luck on your swap.

Phantom You are making the power to run low 12's all you need now is some tires. I am using Drag radials, you might want to try them. I think that is what lonestar1 was using also.
qwik240z The only mod to the motor so far is a small cam, I also put a shift kit in the 4l60e trans. I am using the r230 diff 3.54 gears. The LS1 feels just like my LT1. I am hoping for some faster times this Sunday, I will take a vidio of the runs.

Phantom I am using 13/4 headers with dual 2.5" exhaust. I am using the 3.5" intake cold air. I am using Drag radials.
