Building the E30-LS1

Thanks for the interest! We have a CD which fully documents every step we went through to build the swap. 21 chapters are in the CD, with text instructions, pictures of every step, parts lists, suppliers, dimensioned drawings, sketches, wiring diagrams, etc.

We detail how to make engine mounts, exhaust, wiring, A/C, fuel system, radiator, intake system, drive shaft, clutch fluid line, HydroBoost system. Everything you need, except an LS1 and a T56!

To purchase, go on PayPal, and pick the tab “Send Money”. When asked for the recipient’s email, put in E30LS1@gmail.com. We are charging $99.00 USD. When PayPal notifies us, we will send out the CD via USPS, and email you of the same. Don’t forget to include your mailing info when on PayPal!

Good Luck – Garret & Steve

A lot of grimy, time-consuming work – but I gotta tell ya, the high level of satisfaction was way off the chart. Never detailed an engine bay before.. crazy.
