I've been in the process of swapping an LS4 into my MGB for about 2 years now. Bit by bit it's getting there. My first start happened last weekend so I thought I would share it here. Still a little ways to go to get it on the road but the end appears to be in sight. It's been a very enjoyable project and I'm learning a lot as I go. If you're interested, my build thread is here.
Great job on the swap! Using the LS4 can pose some different challenges!
Thank you, I appreciate it! Besides being the most compact LS motor, one of the other reasons I chose it was because it was different.
Gary, I'll post major milestones here but my main build thread is on the British V8 site. There are some fabulous builds there so you may want to check it out if you haven't done so in the past. There is an outstanding LS1 TR6 here. And a great LS1 Triumph GT6 here.
Yeah, I've been following the MGB build. That's actually a local car here in St Louis. A little more extreme than my plans.
Guess, I'll be bookmarking your British V8 thread,
