im trying to find an ls1 to start putting togeather a price range for my swap..

any ideas on a good place to get one..

or what too look for in a donor car

There is a whole subsection dedicated to this. Check it out.

How long have you been playing with cars?

used to play around with my subaru legacy... then sr20 240... now im onto rx7s

the best thing to look for is ls1 engine...i read that it is essential for any ls1 swap

^ lmao


check out car-part.com thats where i found mine. its like a database for a lot of salvage yards

www.LS1tech.com

there is a TON of great info and engines for sale as well... I suggest looking for a complete pull-out.

I'm doing this swap in the spring.

V8rx7 forum will have a "How to" DVD and book that should be released by next summer ;) I highly suggest it... the guys putting it together have done the swap MANY times.

cleveland pick-a-part has complete ls1 with tranny pull outs they will include everything from the ecu, harness and pedals, i read a thread on ls1tech where cleveland pick-a-part sent one of there own mechanics out to florida to fix warranty work on a swapped 240sx that customer service at its best

Buy a write-off, and sell the body and other parts to save money.

just buy a 800 dollar 5.3 complete with acc's from the junk yard and have it bored out to a 5.7
it the cheapest way to do it, the only downside is about 75 pound difference in weight from a aluminum block.
