Default Lsx-lx....

a friend of mine and I are thinking about doing the swap, and I have already done a search, and have gathered alot of helpful info. I am just wondering if there is any other useful info out there and if anyne has started producing swap parts for this type of project. Also, I want to run a Th400 on this project... any tips?

The header thing is what I was guessing... but I didn't know if there was a company out there that already had headers....

are you talkign about just a regular k-member? I was thinking about a AJE K-member with LS1 plates.

I hate wiring so I have to figure out who to have do that crap!

you still have to move a least two tubes on both sides,so you'r still building headers.it's not that hard but theres more to it then a flage swap
