Didn't know that. I thought it was the 600hp/700hp big block. I'll check the GM engine site.

There was a company that sold an installation kit for a LS engine swap for the 350z. Can't remember their name, but remember reading about it awhile back in the 350z forum. I wonder if they are coming out with the same type of kit for the 370z?

Several people have already done this with success with the 350z, but pretty expensive! Good luck getting the ECU to work right.

Dude, chill. Were only having a little fun with ya here...no need for the unnecessary douchebaggeriness. I'm just sayin'.

We're all friends here, regardless of the vehicle each chooses to drive. There are quite a number of 5.0 owners on here that contribute regularly. Should they not do so simply because of the car they drive?

I tend to think of this site as a like-minded community where ideas and opinions are freely shared.

Sorry if you took offense to our meaningless jabs, but the point was solid: why post something that's going to obviously pique the interest of fellow Z owners, if you're not going to follow up with your trials and tribulations for us all to enjoy?

Happy Holidays.

We try to have a more tight knit community here with less douchebaggeriness than many of the other car forums. We take all kinds here ... only defamatory posts will earn someone a one-way ticket out of here.

"some see a letter... others see a Car" we are all Z lovers here and try to encourage and help as much as we can. some posters know more than others (im on the learning side lol)

but we all share the same love for this magnificant machine.

if you plan to follow through with your build thread, we all love to see progress.

No need to get snippy. Just saying, if you're going to post your plans repeatedly, show us some love with a build thread. It is good for the forum, and years later you'll be glad you documented it.

As for all the other staff, I'm not into that. I'm not going to spend a month & 100 posts talking about every little nothing. I'll build it, I'll race it, & blow doors off at the track.
