Default LS1 240SX swap, Hinson Supercars?

Hey everyone. I am doing an LS1/T-56 swap into a '95 Nissan 240SX. Has anyone used the kit from Hinson Supercars? Run into any complications? All input would be immensely appreciated.

My LS1 RX7 has the Hinson premium mounting kit, no problems so far. I know it's not a 240, just thought I would add my opinion.

Search, will be the most convincing answer you'll probably get... but I've heard alot of people saying thier headers are great, but there Mounts are bad... or something in that range... and that they are expensive also... so good luck search theres a gazillion threads about this...

since this is a 240 swap i wouldnt recommend the rx7 boards.

the general consensus with the hinson stuff FOR THE 240 SWAP is they are garbage. as of right now (as far as i know) there is no publicly available kit that is good. everyone is making their own or just going to shops to have them fab stuff.

the ls mounts are incredibly easy to make for a 240 chassis, dont be scared of doing it yourself

Your right the mounts are easy.. the headers just take a bit of time. If people read this forum you can find out how do to mounts, cmc, tacho, wiring, you name it. I sell a kit or parts seperate, I havn't had any problems yet.
