ktm Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) WOW... Can't wait to get mine runnig. And one of the reasons i went with the L28ET was because i met a guy with a really nice 240z that had it built to crazy specs, and it's a lot more unique than a V8 swap. No its not. An L28ET is a common swap; an LSx swap is still unique. Keep in mind that I had a "unique" L28ET swap. Quite honestly, if you are interested in power then the L28ET swap is not the way to go. You'll spend as much money making an L28ET produce reliable LSx power as you would simply doing an LSx swap.

Gollum Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Yea, unique is a hard thing to come by around here... Let's name just few engines off the top of my head that HAVE been done. SBC SBF SBM BBC BBF BBM 1UZFE VH45DE VG30DE VQ35DE Jag V12 Viper V10 SR20DE(T) RB20,25,26DE(tt) 1JZ,2JZGTE 7MGTE F20C Ford Lima Pinto Buick V6 BMW I6 Should I keep going? Some of these I only know of one or two off the top of my head, but that means there's probably a couple more out there that I don't know of. To be fair, I DO see more LSX swaps in person than L28ET, but maybe that's the area I'm in. It's getting to the point to where I'd personally say that they're being done about equally, but just a few years ago that was definitely not the case. It's taken the LSx donors come down in cost to make it a reality while the donors for the L28ET has been cheap for a while now. To be truly unique you have to think outside the box, not just go with a box you've never heard of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
