I'm finishing up my LS1 V8 FD Conversion and if folks in Houston are interested in doing this conversion I am near ready to take on additional projects. If you are serious about this just shoot me a PM with your phone number.

If you were ever curious about this conversion I must say it's a blast to drive, nothing rotary powered compares to the "experience" (not faster than a high hp rotary, just different), but it is not an inexpensive or fast conversion as there are many parts to source, lots of custom work to do(especially wiring), and many many options on the build.

The conversion requires alot of downtime and therefore anyone interested in doing this will need a well lit garage to store and work on the car for the conversion, I wish I had the shop space but unfortunately no. I have been able to locate and build relationships with the various suppliers for parts, welding, A/C work, LS1 engine builds and tuning, etc so many of the difficult issues are solved.

I can also go well beyond the V8 as I've done suspension, brakes, stereos, fuel systems, wiring of all sorts, etc so pretty much anything short of body work we can get done.

Lastly, I am blessed to have my good friend and rotary mechanic Chuck (cewrx7r1) involved whenever another pair of skilled hands are needed. Oh, I have not given up on the rotary as Chuck and I are still doing third gen motor rebuilds, porting, non-sequential or single turbos, suspension, brakes, FMICs, PFC tuning, and custom installs for most anything short of body work or paint.

 

Kyle and I also do FD engine rebuilds, porting, PFC tuning, and other modifications.
We live in SW and S Houston areas.

 

I wana do a V10 in an FC, can you mate one to the tranny?

 

Why stop at v10? Mercedes makes a nice little V12 that'd go right in there!

 

I think I smell pu**y in my thread ...

 

I was thinking the new BMW V10

if I was going to go with a V8 ir would be a porsche V8 with the twin turbos, think the turbo S does 520hp stock

 

You have no idea how serious SingleTurbo is. If he wants it, he goes for it. Your chance to make a customer

 

I had that smell in my truck a couple of times, the first time it turned out it was the clutch going out on me.
