Default New to LS World

Hi everyone,
Been lurking a bit.

Last year I swapped an LS1 into my 1993 Nissan 240SX that I've had for 16 years.
I tore the engine apart before the swap and just freshened things up a little and put upgraded lifters and trunnion upgrade.

The engine is mated to a 350z 6spd transmission.
I got the car running and driving last year and now I'm continuing to work on little issues that I want to fix.

Thanks! It's a work in progress. Installed an Infiniti Q45 rear differential a couple weeks ago to get the gearing a little better for street driving. Coilovers have been ordered, then I'm kind of hoping to just enjoy it for the summer. Maybe make more changes next winter.

That’s cool! Always loved a 240. Have a buddy in town with a procharger ls 240 he uses for drift.

it’s cool to see a 240 then hear the v8 rumble

Thanks! Ooh I bet that's fun. Might have to add forced induction to this in the future.
Yeah, it definitely doesn't sound how it should based on the look.

Thanks! No dyno yet. Maybe down the line I'll get it to that point.
