talk me in or out of a LS swap for my vert

[devon.818]

yeah kinda weird i know.

at my work another tech has his ls1 on a engine stand, i offered him 2k for it and he declined, my boss heard and kinda pressured him to take the offer, so now its back in my court...stipulation is if i buy it everyone helps get it in my e30 vert...

details on motor, full rebuild done by our lead tech last year, hooker headers, tune, polished aluminum heads and mild cams....yeah in his camaro it dyno'd close to 450whp.


now my car is my daily, so even though i have the resources and can pull the funds, i can't pull not having a car for too long which points me away from this...but on the other hand, sweet baby mother fucker, that would make one fast vert am i right?

i literally am seeing a devil on my shoulder telling me to do this, and a angel on the other...also telling me to do this lol.

[LJ851]

I'm on the devil's side. 2k is an awesome deal as well.


Get to work son.

Build it yourself, r3v is not your personal mechanic.

[devon.818]

yeah two g's is a good deal, the guy is getting a house and just needs cash.

uhm i wouldn't expect anything of the sort...

[Wh33lhop]

Borrow a car for awhile and do it ya pansy.

[F34R]

Then buy it, 2k is a great price for a monster of an engine. IMO the LS is the best of any V8 swaps on here.

My friend daily drives his 240sx ls2 and its pretty fantastic. I say do it.

[GillesBigCowboy]

WTF, just do it.

[JasonC]

For that price. Yes, go for it.

[ElJimo]

....yolo

[iansane]

How complete is that? Intake manifold, wiring harness, computer? I wouldn't say it's an amazing deal, it's definitely fair.

I'll always support an LSx swap.

[TimKninja]

it had a six speed on it, but that we just dropped in someone's 'nova lol, so i could probably cop the automatic that came out of it...

motors 100% there, intake, computer, wiring, airbox if i want it lol.

idk ima sit down with my boss and our lead tech tomorrow and see what it would take to actually do this....besides the obvious cases of beer and long sleepless nights.


oh and i asked to get unbanned, kinda simple...

[stamar]

yes
