You're probably better off buying an LS1 car to start with. To do it correctly it would probably cost about 6-8k. I have put Gen3 motors in 3 S10 trucks and it cost between 4-6k.

go for it,what could you do to an Lt1 to make it run as hard as an Ls2 and get the fuel mi.,performance etc. thinking in that respect you will end up with an Ls based engine
