No its going to be for show, and weekend fun so I am keeping the auto trans. Its going on the dyno this week, with the new intake, cam, heads, and other add it should lay 430 at the wheels on the new rear. Its a 3.9 LSDiff. I still have to install the 5 lug conversion, wheels and tires. Its on KYB AGX shocks, tein springs, new swar bars, knuckles, tension rods, adjustable traction bars, adjustable toe rods, camber bars
Power steering work 100%, custom hoses were made to fit the Chevy pump. No AC though, no room for that.
And I have alot of body work to do. I have a S15 Conversion, and we have to modify the hood to fit. Probably a 2-3 inch cowl.
I just wanted to build something different, i looked into the RB motors, but I wanted to be a little more umique.

And about the bash thing when I frist said I was doing this most people hated the idea of an engine swap like this. But its different, and its finished. Most of the people who had something negative to say are also the people with blue smoke coming out of their beat up cars.

How much was the LS6? I'm looking for one but everyone is giving me BS numbers.
And about the AC, have you checked with SDP-Online.com or Hinsonsupercars.com? I think they have the kit to install it. I'm sure of it as they did the first LSx swap in a 240.

Not the first, theres a few out there. I paid 2500 for the Engine, harness,ecu, missing the flex plate which cost me 300. The kits get the engine in there, but its not done right. The AC was ripped out. I Could have made it work, just decided I didn't want it. Its not an everday car.
