That will be a very straightforward swap. The correct section to search and post in would be here I think:

Is the LS2 replacing a SBC? Noticed the bottom of your post....

Yes. My father put in the sbc350 20 years ago, while I was in college. I've inherited the car and figured it's time for an upgrade, especially since the 350 is toast.

I can't imagine there's anything really different in the context of a swap. Everything will bolt up fine. Perhaps a waterpump outlet if the LM7 still has its stock waterpump.

Unless you're just a troll, you should have read in the article that this is a concept car, not in production vehicle. Plus, this forum is for Conversions & Hybrids, not new cars. Be a little more observant.

No way Michael, that's so cool!

I remember you way back from the corral.net days.

LS3 is gonna make that Volvo a rocket.

97 Ford Cobra
Complete LSA/TR6060 dropout from a 2012 CTS V 39k miles

if anyone has any information regarding the hydraulic CMC mounting and attachment to the pedal that would be great. Its hard to find information on this as most people go with an automatic.

Also has anyone completed an LSA swap into a mustang? I havent been able to find any.

Most likely a trail rig. A lot of folks use 2 alternators to get enough amperage to run Ready Welders.
