Hey everybody, heard about this site from a few guys on [NewYorkMustangs.com](http://www.newyorkmustangs.com) and figured I would check it out. Good to see more local sites. Anyway I drive an 02 Mustang GT w/ a Vortech, cams, full exhaust, etc. pushing 430’ish to the wheels. Here’s a few pics.

I will try to update as much as I can. I am paying a buddy to do it for me while I am gone. I would have done it myself but I have no garage and time for the project.

i’d rather see an S50B32 in there but an LS1 will do, i guess 😃 😃

seriously though sounds like a great swap, a little build thread or a link to one on bf.c would be great!!

Well the reason why I am doing the swap all comes down to price,power,and practicality.  
Price. Well the ls1 swap will produce just about as much hp and perhaps more tq than a e46 m3. Only for about around $10000 cheaper. They are also much more cheap to mod and get big hp numbers out of them.  
Power. As I said just your basic bolt ons will out do a s motor no problem in with it being half the cost as said before.  
Practicality. Lets face it the lsx motors are practically bullet proof. and maintenance and upgrading the motor is easy as hell. Parts are also easy to find.

The ls1 motor weighs about the same as my I6 iron block thats already in my car so I dont have to worry about my weight distribution getting thrown off. I just think of it all this way.  
German-European engineering and handleing + american V8 POWWA = IMO the best car EVAR!  
and yes it will have the 6 speed.:thumbup

Pretty much spot on, yep. The key advantages to an LSx swap are how cheap power gains for the LSx motors are, especially compared to BMW motors. It’s not like you can turbo an S52 and expect 400 HP no problem.
