I would get with Shon Herron. I think he is swapping his bolton LT1 for an LS1 setup. I know the K member also needs to be changed. For the trouble of doing it all, I wonder if an LS2/3 would be feasible? I dont know much about them though.

I have done the Swap..built my own Harness and everything..
I was originally goin to to go a LS1, but after looking into it, I decided to build a combo that's a little bit more nastier than a LS2 or LS3..

Here is a Link..

Depends on how much you can get the LS1 for..and all the rest of the stuff you would need. I have about $8k wrapped up in my swap.
