Default New to the LS world

Hello!

I'm a newbie to the LS world, but I've been toying around with cars for about 8 years now.

I've had several different civics (One being a turbo single cam - hence the screen name)

Last year I purchased a Honda S2000. It's nearly perfect, except in the torque department.

So long story short, I've purchased a 2000 model Z28 as a donor car. LS1/T56.



Hopefully over the next 3-4 months I'll have this project mostly complete!

Looking forward to the build thread! I'd love to have an S2K with an LS1 in it.

Can't wait to see the end result. I love the S2000, especially in hardtop form. Good luck!
