If you're up for that sort of project then by all means. Its true that the majority of swap pieces for the LS into a Z32 are out there. That said its still a hell of a lot more work to engine swap, even with off the shelf pieces than it is to pull the trans. In fact, a clutch job is a weekend job for me with beer breaks, jack stands, a floor jack, and hand tools. Lift the car, set on jack stands, remove exhaust (12 bolts), remove center console trim and release shifter hanger (3 screws, 1 bolt), unbolt shifter bracket/carrier (4 bolts), secure trans on floor jack and remove trans to block bolts (12 IIRC), drop trans. To do an engine swap you have to do all the trans work, plus allllllll the engine, wiring, plumbing, etc.
