Put on your flame suit bud. We answered your question. I was truthful with you. Now you want to be an ass. Did you want us to tell you how awesome the underpowered, titanic weight, never used v8 would be in your car and that we were going to offer you a chocolate chip cookie free of charge?

Aluminum blocks weak??

LSx inferior to LTx??

Are you a retard??

The GM manufactured LT1 has it's first short comings due to the ignition system known as OptiSpark. It is complete junk. Ask me how I know..

The iron block can hold more horsepower, theoretically. IF YOU'RE PUSHING UNDER 1000WHP IT DOESN'T MATTER!! There are plenty of 1000+whp LSx engines on FACTORY ALUMINUM BLOCKS. How do I know?? Ohhh just the fact that Hinson Supercars is right down the road and Lane Culver is across the yard and at the local drag strip every weekend. (builds LSx drag cars all day, every day and owns/operates a 1300whp LSx powered RX7)

The LT1 heads.. Need I even talk about the horrible flowing junk heads??

Weight.. do you even realize that were talking about a 500+lbs. engine in a S13 chassis??

I told you I respected your plan if you were working with what you had. I was truthful when I said it most likely would never happen. One hundred kids a day come on Zilvia getting butt hurt because someone is honest with them and makes them realize this shit isn't as easy as modifying a car in your Forza garage. Or the fact that we don't praise your every move with a swap that is inefficient and most certainly a waste of hard work and trial and error, not to mention money.

Do yourself a favor and sell your LT engine and save for a proper engine swap. Now come back with questions if you want to seriously go through with this. I would have no problem helping you. I think you will soon realize that you have better options out there. Good luck.
