I think his connection is a wrecking yard, not a jdm junkyard.
Dude Hockey Pucks ftw. We used Hockey pucks on this S12--> VG30DE Swap that just got banged out. So you were 2mm off slot line up? Does not sound bad at all. Dremel!
We were thinking of doing a manual trans swap on a friends q. This is shaping up to be the same only MUCH lighter. It sucks that you wont feel the before and after of the headers, it is a HUGE difference.... oh that and Nitrous. This engine LOVES nitrous.
Turbo...? Short of a low compression rebuild and some serious management, Rear Axle mount? Have to keep it V8 Style.
Reasons why VH45>LS1:
Over Head cam, IE 4 CAMS.
Much Higher Redline.
Lighter.
Nissan.
