I saw it at SEMA, it’s actually looks like a pile ot cat crap in real life. My biggest issue with the car is the interior…it is so riced out compared to the feel of the rest of the car. ---

The guy who made that car is currently in the process of getting parts to make a video on how to do a V8 conversion in 24 hours on a 240sx. tbh, its probably one of the best swaps you can do out there. ---

Probably. 'Vettes generally get 20ish mpg, of course depending on driving style. A 240 is going to be lighter too, so…its going to be pretty decent. I can get decent gas mileage with my LT1 (not quite as good on gas), but not so much when you hammer on it =/. Same goes with any vehicle though. ---

20 isn’t to bad i guess, definatlly being lighter would help not burn as much gas! i had a 79 z28 with a 350 4bbl. i could almost watch my gas gauge go down when u punched it!! i sold that for my 240!! 40$ z28 - 200km, 40$ 240 450km, ALOT less power, but atleast my wallet wouldn’t suffer so much!! ---

Yeah, for sure the older V8s were a wee bit thirsty, but the new ones seem to be pretty good. They’re not a Prius, but they don’t eat the gas like they used to. The cost increase sometimes is because you have to put premium in for some of the V8s, like my LT1. I don’t know about the 5.3s, I imagine the LS1 wants premium. > [@SLR Camera](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/slr-camera/15928/22): > > looks like it’s about the take the right headlight with it too - the left one is already a lost cause. lol, I believe the headlight wasn’t added to show some more of the construction, and I don’t think it was finished in that picture. I don’t see any bolts between the turbo and the manifolds. Other pictures show both lights in =p. I can post the link to other pics if people want them, I just need to dig it up again.
