Took the LT1 out. Disconnected the t56. Looked at it. Not really sure what parts i need for the LS1 swap. Wished i had an anonymous person who could fund my project so i can mod it out to beasty status. but i guess my first car will just have to be relatively stock.

Cleared some codes, and tried to figure out the low coolant light, when it's full. It's off in the morning, and comes on after about ten miles.

Sounds like you have a bad sensor on your hands.

I agree. I actually have a bad one myself. Something you can try is take the sensor off and look at the metal conductors inside the sensor. Sometimes they get coated with coolant. Just take some steel wool and clean it up. It may or may not work but its free and worth a try.

Just spent the night in it in the parking lot at work cause I worked late and had to be here early. The seats are actually very comfortable though.

Haha impressive. I've slept in a Civic before, I just can't get comfortable laying in a car seat.
