Question How Much?

How Much did it cost you to get your LS1 up and running from the transmission up, including everything.

On just the stuff for the swap?

I've got about 3000-3200 bucks in the LS1/A4 including all of the swap stuff, ported oil pump, engine rebuild, HP Tuners, cam, nitrous, radiator, etc.

I got my engine/tranny for 1000 dollars though.

3500 for the engine/trans combo. Id be willing to bet I have another $1000 just in small stuff to get it up and running, with more to go yet.
