seems like a waste of an LS1. I’d rather see it in a car that wasn’t fast in the first place. like yins said, the stock motor can be made to run as good, so why go thru the trouble to do it? I’m sure the LS1/trans/rear diff is heavier, and probably negatively affects the handling in some way. It looks fake to me. It does not seem level enough (like it is pointing upwards in the front). I agree about the blower/air filter arrangement. ---

I’m sure it’s on Google, but I don’t feel like searching. They say it is lighter than the original setup, but they are not running a T56, either. It has a TH400 in it, which is heavier than a T56/clutch/etc. But I can see your point on the xfer case. As I read the whole thread, it seems more believable, but I don’t care for it.
