Has anybody ever swapped a LS1 into a S13 before? I've seen the guy thats swapped a 440 into a s13 but what about a LS1 and how hard do you think it would be to swap it in there?

 

i think mike peters has an ls1 in his s13

According to the vid on that site the stock ka and tranny weighes 600 lbs.. WAAT.

 

Slightly off topic, but I swapped a LS1 into my 68 Chev pickup (305whp). And I have an S14(a lot less whp). I suppose that doesn't qualify toward answering your question! But if I get bored, maybe I should swap their engines?! haha here's the real question. Has anyone ever swapped a KA into a 68 chevy? haha I wouldn't recommend that one.

 

im not sure on exact numbers, but a LS1 weighs less than a KA, as well as the Mazda 13B-REW, NA all aluminum V-8s arnt all that heavy.

and @ 68LS1: do it, switch the motors, LOL
