    haha oh dear god. That would be a feat in itself just getting it to actually fit. You would have to bring the firewall back to your chest i bet. The transmission would be under the back seats, and the drive shaft would be about a foot and a half long.

    You bought that car for a DD so you can spend your money on the truck, dont tell me your tricking out the mirage instead of the truck.

    i would put it in something worth putting it into like a z3 or something. a mirage isnt worthy of an ls1 and like ducky said put the money into ur truck if anything, thats obvious. good luck with whatever u do.

    ever seen a Diamante VR-4?

    Those were the shite back in the early &#39;90s. AWD and turbo. Modded some had 300hp. Early version of a WRX.

    Oh yeah the mirage is my daily driver because of the fuel economy and the light weight. Now would i still be getting 25 miles per gallon with the ls1 in the mirage do you think?
