[snoochie boochies]

it wil take a lot of money but its ok i will have money to do it when i am out of the navy but what i really want to do is have a LS1 swap but have it as an MR layout then twin turbo that shizz with forgered internals ofcourse and run high psi.

what doy ou guys think?

Do you have a chassis in mind?

[DJ Raijin]

I'm curious as to what transmission he's going to use. It's not like the Ford 5.4 where you can source a Ford GT transaxle to use.

Vette transmission maybe?

and yes, what chassis? or are you just gonna get some tube steel together and weld up a complete one off.

[snoochie boochies]

vette transmission or something that can handel the power, but its going to be in an s13 chassie. hella money but it would be intence mang

[cnichols]

I don't think the gain (if there is any) will be worth the time and money.

[snoochie boochies]

really? im not trying to be mean or anythign but can i ask why you would think that? like if its mr it would be more stable then a FR so its no like front heavy and it would very unique you know? who else has an mr ls1tt 240

[cnichols]

I didn't say it wouldn't be unique...I just don't see any real advantage. The S chassis is already very stable, so what little gain you MIGHT see, wouldn't be worth the massive amounts of trouble you'll go through to get there.

I think your time and money would be better invested in getting all the details addressed and maybe doing ITBs on it or something like that...but that's just me.
