no, me and a buddy did mine but we are friends with Nathan Hale. he does a lot of the LS1 swaps.

He has put them in everything from his 65 ford truck, a 36 car, a 60's Lincoln all those have turbos and he has also put just NA set ups in several other vehicles

It's too bad you weren't in South Dakota or I'd do the swap for you. I'm finishing up a ls1/t56 in my 68 firebird right now. Its something I enjoy doing.

Jake Shoemake might do it. He's in Sanger, about 20 minutes north of Denton. He built my 200R4 and while I was there he had an LS swap he was working on...

They are near downtown Dallas. Tim Mason is probably one of the most knowledgeable LS swap guys anywhere. Not the cheapest, but it will be done right. Good luck...
