Default S13 240sx + 2000 Ls1-- nebraska build

Couple months ago i got the bug of wanting to try to do this swap

Last week found a truck a buddy bought wrecked to use the cab n chasis - so then i heard the motor run- and tuesday i bought the engine 79,894 miles

started up perfect- needs lower belt and oil filter no biggy

same night the motor was tore down to the cams (tuesday)

(wed) ordered cams/springs/ ls1 car fuel rail / and camaro/corvette intake

thinkin parts should arrive from comp by friday

price list

500$

Running Engine/trans/ecm/whole dash/driveshaft/fuel pump/ ---From a Personal Friend
$650

hardest part should be the engine mounts-- if anyone knows where i could find a wiring diagram that should would be helpful also- well yesterday just bought solid bushings for the rear and located a 300zx diff-- and rear brakes -- and also purchased s15 silvia headlights cuz i had a poor s13.5 face collecting dust for 2 years lol prolly gonna get it repainted before the nico club convention at mam june3-6th any ideas on a color?
