Seems like ur almost ready to post an accel video or two. Looking forward to seeing it in action!
If u don't mind me asking, how much coin is it going to cost for all the parts to do the swap?

So basically other than the time factor its semi-close to the MK2 kit with the trans swap?
Price wise I mean

With the 1gr once u s/c it there isn't much else u can do. But with the lsx u can do limitless mods..that's why I went the route I did. Once I do heads,cam and intake I will b over 400hp At the wheels. Then I can s/c it and be around 600

that was the whole reasoning for me to never go f/i. all that money to make what the 3rd/4th gen motor makes about stock or with little mods, and a way better platform to build upon. Just wish I still had the truck to do it.
