New from VA, s13 240sx 5.3/Ls1/2/6 hybrid! Whats up guys? Name is Kevin.
New to the LSx game. Just picked up a complete 5.3. Over the next 4-6 months it'll be rebuilt, with milled ls1 heads, 4.8 pistons, upgraded pushrods and rockers, z06 valvesprings, LS2 lifters, and an LS6 intake. Just to get it in and running, i will start with a LS1 intake and stock heads for now with just a mild cam. (and thats granted none of those goals are ignorant and impossible, correct me if they are) What i know, is ls2 lifters are awesome, the ls6 intake is to die for, and z06 valve springs are good too.
All this will be going into my 1993 coupe 240sx with a t56 behind it, using the CXRacing swap kit (headers, both engine and trans mounts, front sump pan and pickup, and driveshaft for $1500)
I joined for a good bit of tech info, hopefully i can get all the help i need!
I'm around Fredericksburg, VA. and I run a small speed/general repair automotive shop known as Potomac Speed Industries. If you feel gracious and like cool car ****, go like me on facebook!
Open to all pointers and info! Hope to meet some cool people.

Once you hit 301 south from 17, its roughly 8 miles into King George co. (once you cross the rappahannock river) on the right hand side, immediatly after the relax inn motel. It's an all white building with 3 bays, No signs up or anything, i try to keep cop and hoodlum attention away from what may or may not be inside the shop 
customers appreciate that kind of stuff. hahah

Welcome to the site Kevin! Maybe I'll see you around. I work in King G. If you see a big *** 4 wheel red & black Terragator 
(agricultural) running up and down 17 & 301, just me working! If I'm around your area, I'll stop by. Your 240 sounds like a beast!
