Onetype Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Had a chance to buy this car several years ago when it was a 1jz swap. I had too many projects at the time so my buddy bought it. He started having some problems and just decided to LS swap it. Well he started it and then it sat for a year or so and he offered to sell it to me. Timing was right as I have some spare room in the shop right now to knock it out, so I drove up to Kansas and hauled it down to Austin. LQ4 6.0 S475 t56 Explorer 8.8 Full length subframe connectors (damn near full frame rails) New floor boards, toe boards, inner/outer rockers, and lower A pillars Going to start on the bodywork in the morning. Shaving the side markers and antenna hole and skimming the entire car before we spray it. Also have a set of 17" Weld RTS that came off my 76mm LS Volvo Wagon that I want to put on this car, just need to do some 5 lug swap research.

Stock Car Mafia Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 This build should be pretty epic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onetype Posted June 6, 2016 Author Share Posted June 6, 2016 Thanks, this motor is going in another project though. A 72 Camaro SS. I have a few extra 5.3's. Pulling one apart now to put gen 4 rods/pistons in. Unless I come across and L92 soon Also have a brand new Holley EFI Dominator setup that came with the car. Shaved the side markers and antenna hole last night. Threw a new set of Corbeau CR1's I had in it. Need to build some brackets now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
