Default Ls1 in notch!

What's up guys. I just recently totaled my 98 z and was in the process of working on a project notch mustang. Gotta keep the legacy alive and was wondering how hard it would be to swap my ls1 and t56 in the notch? I member motor mounts harness driveshaft. Just wanna get an idea of what I'm gettin into

AJEK member, AJE Trans cross member, Kooks or DYnotech headers, custom drive shaft, and some time and energy just to list a few things. I am doing the same swap. Still in the gathering parts phase though.

If all the mustangs around here weren't rotted out or twisted, I would have bought one, probably the best and cheapest chassis to go fast.....with an LS motor of course

Yeah, the shell i have is in great shape, never been hit, and has about 72k on it. Didn't think i could go wrong. Thanks for the input though, the harness is still the grey area, but I guess I'll deal with that when the time comes.

You can use your stock 98 harness and just make it stand alone. I did that with a 98 vette harness and it is still DBW.
