No problem. It's kind of hidden so most people don't know about it. Originally posted by apneablue

I have one. 2000 LS1 + cam + springs + software mods
I love it. It's been on the road for a few weeks short of a year and it's the longest the car has run trouble free.
Plus its faster and sounds better.

www.hinsonsupercars.com has most of the items needed for the swap.
Most ppl I know have done the swap themselves using a portion of Hinson's products.
IronDonut, wingsfan, and myself all did the swap ourselves. I leaned on them some for help along the way.

Mine's (LS1/T56) been running essentially problem free since December, which is the longest stretch I've gone without breaking something.
My drivetrain conversion parts came from Hinson. My cooling, fuel, and the wiring (and any problems associated with them) is all my own damn fault.

all i am lacking is a drive shaft...but that's easy.

Greddy 3 Row Intercooler
HKS 264 intake/exhaust
SP71GTQ Turbo Kit

I'll like it when it's done. Or so I hope.
2000 nissan maxima v-6
6-speed manual transmission (from a 350z).
Misc other parts from various cars. Mostly nissan.
My daily driver just through an apex seal so the swap must be finished soon. I hate driving my truck (usually only used in winter)
