Lets get some more info on these v8 swaps and stop talking about irrelevant shit... Anyone know any websites that have people that have actually completed these swaps? Instead of bashing the idea lets support what makoto is asking about. Obviously most of you havent ridden in an LS1/LT1 powered car. I have. INSTANT POWER..... thats all i have to say. NO spool, No bullshit, No tuning, just bolt-on and go.
Stock LS1 powered Camero's run 13 flat to 13.5 depending on driver. And those cars weigh around 3500lbs Now put that in a 2800 pound car....

cause they were prolly in the 12's

if you believe that stock f-bodies and C5 vettes can't run low 13's all day long bone stock you belong in a mental institution or under a bus that is on fire and at the bottom of the ocean.

[SimpleS14]

^-- lol

I would be interested to find out more information on a LS1 swap into a S14. I've seen pics everywhere, but nothing that sells a "kit" or explains wiring.



Does anyone see this as becoming the next common swap for the 240SX?......it just needs exposure in those magazines.

400hp, 390ft/lbs

Isn't it more like high 13's totally stock. But low 13's are only slicks or a couple bolt on mods away. Either way a LS1 240 with basic mods would be in the 12's with slicks. It would be in the 11's if you got the new 400hp LS2. Think about it. F body/Corvette is not running the gears that we run. They are geared more for fuel economy. It would freaking fly. All you people asking "how do you do it" need to just realize....Everything would be custom. You need to massage the transmission tunnel a little, make custom mounts all around. Then use a harness and ecu that you will likely have to lengthen or shorten. Painless wiring makes a harness for the LS1 so it wont be too hard. This can be done its just a matter of how resourcefull you are.

WRONG. MN6 equipped LS1 F bodies run almost 13 flat bone stock and the same goes with vettes. the reason they run the same times is cause the live axle in the Fbodies makes up for its weight gain over the vette with independent suspension in the rear.

nobody is asking HOW. we're discussing what needs to be done and what other options are. fuggin duh it can be done cause i've seen lt1, 302,AND ls1 240's... anything else genius?

[justinhustle]

call up lingenfelter and have em do it

[PinkPanther]

Lol,An S13 doing THIS would be outrageous.

[meatish]

I was looking into doing the same thing with my FC, and came across this shop which does tons of V8 conversions.. maybe someone could coax them into doing a kit for 240's. Get a petition out there!

Oh yeah, and after looking at some of those swaps, especially with a LS1, wouldnt there be power steering problems? Just a thought, that would suck to have to retrofit and rebend your lines.. and suck more to not have ps.

[nismo2491]

god that track looks unsafe as shit. not 100% sure but it also looks like its only 1/8th mile track.

Are you trying to win a Ass Hole award? This post has become pointless because no one will be able to add much to the topic with out actually going thru the process. That was my point.

If a v8 was going in my car it would be the powertec made from 2 hayabusa engines.. 383hp at 10,000rpm

that sounds like a honda v8 with the powerband of a b16....... GHEY


The whole point of having a v8 is to have the :hitthegasandinstantlygo: feeling.

Not having power steering is simply not an option for an s13. I was actually thinkin about this and never mentioned it cause i forgot. I was thinkin about all metal lines...cause i dont see the point in the rubber. Basically it would be almost like turbo lines but probably thicker in some parts. What do you guys think?

[wootwoot]

I've been trying to hunt down a manual rack that goes into our bays. F power steering, just using power steering minus the pump is crappy

Yea real fuckin GHEY, dont get mad just because you cant afford it,, Im shure what you got is better anyway, right? haha

All this slobbering on a run of the mill dinosaur pushrod smallblock that everyone and their mom has. Id be looking for something more exotic for all that trouble.

use PS grade braided line (extruded teflon line braided steel cover) then use an aftermarket resivor from KRC or some other circle track company shit is Really easy I converted my PS to this when I went SR but only on the high pressure side as I had a stock resivor so no need on the low press side to messi with converting a nipple to an AN fitting I have the aeroquip part numbers for both ports on the rack and the pumps on GM use the same adapter as the Nissan IIRC it is like an m12x1.5 o-ring seal (not reverse flare) PS lines are REALLY easy you dont need to worry about that at all

BTW shure is a microphone company sure is the proper word if you are going to mock people please learn to spell correctly

Hey guess what dipshit. Nobody gives a fuck what you want. This thread isnt for you to shit on. So stop.

We arent slobbering over the fuckin engine. STUPID. pay attention. The finished product will be something to enjoy. IT DOESNT MATTER what's under the hood..it matter hows cheap, light and powerful it is.


everyone else pay attention...

IT DOESNT MATTER what's under the hood..it matter hows cheap, light and powerful it is

[zeek]

keep on topic dammit.... and what westborough said

[boosteds13]

Throw this badboy in there and be done with it

604 CID Big Block Chevy Twin Turbo (over 2000 HP)

[MakotoS13]

instead of DOUBLING the weight of the car i'd rather focus on more realistic goals

It was a joke, but I agree... I think the rear wheels would be off the ground with that setup in there.
