Those of you with LS1 240Z's

Now that the fuel lesson seems to be over, I will try to get back to the original requested info.

 

I LOVE my LS1 Z. It is very driver friendly.

Here were my first impressions: http://forums.hybridz.org/showthread.php?t=96038&highlight=alive+maichor%27s

 

I did not use a kit. As such, I was pretty much spending hours on end trying to decide how to get what I ultimately wanted. The problem was I kept wanting more and so I ended up with a severe case of "WHILE I'M AT IT" and that turned and engine swap into a complete build.

 

In fact, the only stock parts I have on the car anymore are unibody, front struts and spindles, and the windows. Everything else is gone and swapped for something else. I mean everything.

 

So, I highly recommend the swap. However, keep it as simple as possible or you will still not be done 8 years later!

Savage42: Apparently you did not take the suggestion of reading David Vizards articles. There are ways to stave off knock other than increasing octane levels. Admittedly at some point of increasing compression there will be a need for higher octane gasoline.
