DUDE! i want to drop an LS1 into my 240 ...ever since i saw HinsonSupercars' LS1 powered s14. And NOW the make KITS to mount it up, and offer jsut about everything else to make it work, even to reprogram it to work with the stock speedo. sweetness

check it out at HinsonSupercars just click on s13 240sx, or s14 for you newer 240s.

it's lighter than the ka and makes more power and a lot more aftermarket support.....but the kits hinson sells aren't cheap either. it's like 3,500-5000 depending on what you really want.
