For those that have done an LTX to LSX swap, some questions.
I am contemplating this for the future sometime, but I have some questions for those that have done it. Will I be able to keep my air conditioning, that would be a deal breaker for me. Also, with the wiring harness swap, is the ABS still functional? Also, are all the other safety features, such as air bag still functional?
Thanks!
Thanks!

I haven't done the swap personally but I have looked into it. If you're patient the swap can be done a lot cheaper than some say it can. For instance, when I do mine I plan to use the used LS K member and steering rack I got off craigslist for $75 rather than buy a tubular. I can't say for certain but I haven't found a thread yet that mentioned whether you can or can't fit A/C with an LS swap. In my case my A/C died this past summer so no real loss for me.

i would imagine you would get a lot more answer in the conversion sub forum on here. But i believe if you bought all the ac componnets for an ls1 f body you would be able to do it. I think the compressor and such are located in a different spot on ls f bodys
