      So far, it's been two years of hard work. Thanks for sharing. Turbo LS. Hmm... 500hp and a boatload of subframe twisting torque ;-) How did you address the rear subframe? Urethane/Delrin/aluminum/steel mounts? Stock 188mm diff or bigger case?

        Locals don't have Issues with built 188 units at 500 - 600 rwhp. Many lsx bmw's running around the bay area.

        If the budget allows a 210mm would always be a reliability upgrade.

        2 ear rear diff conversion is available from some lsx swap kit makers; bolt on item with aftermarket ear or a native 2 ear cover also works.

        400hp is proven to be OK with the z3m heavier duty cover.

                  Dig it... I am thinking turbo LS for my touring. Do you have any pictures from below showing how you routed the crossover pipe?

                  I want to keep AC so will need to figure routing or a different spot for the compressor. Is there enough room for a puller fan?

                              Did this get finished?

                              In hiatus?

                              Too much win to not see completion...

                              It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.
