Im glad that youre choosing an LS1 swap into a merc and not turning it into a race car. Thank goodness

I don't know if that's a sarcastic remark or not but just to be clear, this certainly will not be a race car. I've used LS1 swaps in other cars. Its decent power stock, very reliable and still gets great gas mileage. Overall it will just really make things easy for me. I will keep this inline six motor in storage though. Nothing on the car will be destroyed. This car will be able to return into its stock life form if needed. I have a level of respect for the car... its not some shitty honda/nissan build. ( NO OFFENSE) I've been there and done that so I totally understand and respect any build. I enjoy it all and love the hobby/people who are involved.

appreciate all the love and support fellas

subb'd, don't flake on us Stephen.

Silly goose!

The Green! Love it!

Me too, it really makes me love the car.

Where in CA are you?

Id be interested in your running gear once the swap has been made

In Atlanta, GA! Had the car shipped from Cali to ATL! So this build is not normal around here.

he isn't in Cali, although i'm sure he'd rather be

Nope, living in ATL... Although I used to frequently be in cali... family lives in Malibu Cali. haven't been in a few years though. Might have plans to head to the west cost... not sure yet. We shall see what the future holds.

ha ha! thank you guys/gals? for the support. I will for sure keep you all updated along the way. Currently I'm sourcing my interior work right now, this is going to cost a lot more than I expected... GO FIGURE!

PS - The ls1 setup is not to build a race car out of it. I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea here. It's more so when I do a road trip and have the car loaded with people... I can still merge on the highway with out getting killed because I can't get up to 60mph with out a run way lol.
