4G63 in a Conquest/Starion

...LS1 is sacriledge?

Nice choice of words, straight from this months Sport Compact Car! (Not that I read such a wussy mag)

But they put a LS6/LS7? in a 3rd Gen RX7....adding a total of 67Lbs or something like that. 350 HP vs. the stock >200 is a great deal if its that light!

I would put a turbo LS in my car, but there is no room, on the starion there might be tho.....

If you recall, I think I talked to you about it at the NSX/s2k meet. The price we talked about is about right. More for a really clean body. What journals are messed up? The ones in the head? I have a bare head sitting in my garage that is free and I'm pretty sure it's fine.

Yup, I do remember. I figured that was about right, but you never know until people more familiar with a specific model has input. I would let the car go for $500 as it sits.

Yeah its the cam journals. When I got the car the guys said the head just needs some work, and I towed it away on that premise. When I took it apart, I realised he was clueless. I really wanted to finish and drive this car because I've always liked them, but I have too many cars and too many projects.

And as for the F-body comment: What would be easier to work on? LS1 in a conquest, or LS1 in the F-body. Hmmm...

Hahahaha... Obviously you've never worked on an LS1 Camaro. They are a PITA. At least in a StarQuest the LS1 motor wouldn't be halfway under the firewall.

[FattyBoomBatty]

Yeah, it'd be completely in front of the firewall, the weight ratio F-R would be kinda messed up, but if you're making 500 horsepower on 89 octane it wouldn't be a problem.

Who doesn't love a big stupid v8? Remember, 'There's no replacement for displacement - except electricity!'

LS7 or no LS...anything else is dumb.

Fuck that shit, 427 C5-R FTW!

[Shotgun!]

Fuck that shit, 427 C5-R FTW!

Same thing meng...

[FattyBoomBatty]

how about stock engine with multi-port FI and a large marge turbo and 400 whp daily?

[JET]

Fuck that shit, 427 C5-R FTW!

Bah, that is SOOO last year! Warhawk 454 FTW! They have custom cast blocks and heads for them. And the oil runs the way it should, to the crank first!

[1QUICK4]

Same thing meng...
Correct me if I'm wrong but the LS7 is the 505hp ZO6 motor

The C5-R is a 700hp Crate motor from the Lemans C5-R

[FattyBoomBatty]

They probably just milled the heads down a bit for that C5-R one.
