chevy 350 powered s13
aye you guys kind of a noob to this whole forum thing but i thought i would give it a try and see if anyone had any helpful info...my friend is working on building a v8 240sx and was wondering if anyone on here is familiar on how to do the swap? as far as oil pan problems possible wiring and all that good stuff? thanks

Yeah you need to know the details before you ask. As it stand there are currently 4 generations of small block chevy V8's basically. There more but we'll stick to those Gen III (LS1, LS6, LQ9, LQ4) and Gen IV (LS2 and other excluding the LS7) have the same mounts. Its a bit easier to do on these motors because you can get a front sump pick up and pan from a New GTO, and fabricate the stock crossmember. (which my car has). Gen II and I have different mounts. The are located a bit more to the front / center. This can be trickier. But it can be dont by the right person or shop. But you have other issues to worry about with these. Even though they are easier in the sense of less electronics and wires, they have a rear monted distributor which takes up more precious space. I was going to use a SBC 400 before I decided to go with a Gen 3 engine. That and its an aluminum block that actually weighs less then a stock KA24. Gen 3 and 4 are the best way to go. You have the option of a 5.3, 5.7, 6.0, and the new 6.3 in 2008

im working with a carburated 350 small block fresh out the crate...i know people use the ls1 because of the overall difference in the motor itself, but i haven't seen anyone use a carburated motor yet...so any tips, tricks, pics, or advice would be greatly appreciated |
