Here is my rough first draft for my mid-engine LSX coupe. Its gonna get the donor 4.8L out of my truck when i do the swap. much later on down the road it will drop 100lbs and gain an ls6.

your going to build the car? or where are you going to get the body from?
i'm building the chassis myself, the body, i dont know about. i make try to build my own from resin bonded fiber like fiber glass or carbon fiber. or i might just invest a small fortune and make the entire body out of aluminum. the i can polish it up and clear it
well document the hell out of this
GTM Supercar
just sayin.....
That is what I thought about when I saw his design.Quote:

lsx swaps are also popular in these Ultima Sports Ltd - The Sensational Ultima GTR best option imo
No doubt this is the one to build. They are awesome. I saw that Trevor Faust guy test one. Yes SirQuote:
