Now most people would just swap in a ls1. Not this guy, he wants to throw down ls2 style. Beautiful car.

So what is the overall weight now, and what does the front/rear weight distribution move to?

i'd rather not share how much money i have in the car. i will weigh the car when i get the chance, most LSx swaps retain the 50/50 weight distribution as the aluminum lsx longblock doesnt weight that much more than a stock twin turbo 13b longblock. here are some more pictures of the car out in front of my mom's house.

there's too much open space in the front bumper.

turbo the lsx, and fill the space with a intercooler.

Not a huge fan of the wheel colors, but the design is nice. Maybe some kind of screen/grill for the front? Neat house... always loved the log style... is it new?

You know the swap is practically identical for either motor, right? Anyway, car looks good Craig. The only thing I would do is to close in the space behind the front bumper so you cant see the ground through it. Were you able to keep the factory fender liners with the burnout kit? You still should have put a turbo in the car.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to make a simple duct for the radiator, I agree. There really isn't anything to keep air from spilling right around instead of going through the core.
