Sweet man. Just finished watching the episode. I don't like the new burnet they chose to replace Jessie. Dose this beast roll around yet?

blak max · 09-06-2015, 11:13 PM

show aired. im hearing a lot of "there should have been more"

managed to mount the gas pedal

working on installing the new brake switch, and its not exactly plug and play...bought a universal headlight socket and looking for Stoplight Switch Retainer or locking nut..

need to wire the ignition wire from the gm ecu to the start button.. not sure if i should just tap into one of these or go from the ipdm

How much do you think all in for the kit, engine, tranny, and everything to make it all work? Was this a crate motor?

its not cheap..but you can get it done for a lower price if you go with an Ls1or2 ...
LS3 i got from ebay (vette in a salvage yard) ,
trans i got from a performance shop for 900,
performace torque converter from (Circle D Specialties Performance Torque Converters) ,
engine/trans harness (ww.psiconversion.com) around $700
swap kit from Fueld racing (Fueled Racing) ,
fuel kit $200 (cjm)

then there are extras like gas pedal, sensors, intake, , gauges, cam kit, oil and tranny coolers, fuel regulator, fuel lines, fuel fittings, ecu...

you can buy a crate motor, which i almost did, but you should know they dont all come complete.. the lower priced ones dont come with drive accessories .... if youre going to get into a project like this you should plan it out

wanted to get the 1.5 year old gas out and shift the gas tank

time to remove the gauges

Do you have to cut the hood open to make it fit?

DatsunFTW · 11-13-2015, 09:23 AM
