Wait, I am confused you started with a 96 v6 and stepped up to a 2000 Z? Why on your site does it say something about a swap? was the 1996 swapped or sold for a 2000v6 that you then swapped with an LS1?

The 2000 belonged to a friend of mine. He blew the V6 motor in it and put in the LS1....then he bought a Vette and I got the Camaro.
