L92 in an SN95... Questions I have been doing a lot of research of an LSX swap in my Mustang. I was sure I was going to do an LS1 swap, but I'd rather do something different now.
I've been researching the GM LS motor line and now I'm leaning towards the L92 motor. I knew exactly what I needed to do to get the LS1 motor in, but I don't know what would need to change to do the L92 instead.
I was going to use the AJE K-member with LSX motor mounts, I am wondering if this will work with the L92?
Also, I was planning on using a 98-02 F-body T-56 transmission, will that bolt up to the L92 without problems?
The L92 has an electronic throttle body, will this be a problem? If so would I be able to change it to a cable operated throttle body?
What about the engine harnesss? Will I be able to use the L92 harness? Or will an engine harness from a LS1 Camaro or Trans Am work?
Thanks,
Jeff

I figured that everything would be pretty much the same, just want to be sure before I actually get the motor.
Would the LS1 engine harness work with that motor? I don't want to use the truck harness due to the complexity and unusual setup.

also do not need to use truck harness since they use dif. type injector plug.
not ev1 like ls1

Why would it be easier to use a 6.0 instead? I'm trying to stay within a budget also from what I've seen, 6.0's are more expensive. Also, which you referring to, the LS2 or the LQ9?
Would it be easier to use the e-tb?

6.0 lq4 are generally cheeper than a l92
the lq9 is very difficult to come by and usually much more than a lq4.
they use same block, crank, heads,rods but dif.. pistons
lq4 is 9.4:1 scr and lq9 is 10:1.
the l92 engines come in iron 6.0 and alloy 6.2.
ls2 is a alloy 6.0
it will be easier to use a cable driven tb. in just about any car that originally came with cable driven tb.
it would be easier/cheeper to run with a lq4, with stock milled heads and mild cam. along with basic bolt ons. it will easily make 450+bhp with stock ls6 intake and tb
stock 317 6.0 heads flow just as well as ls2/ls6 heads
