    I'll give that to ya. I'd do it in a MKIV if I could find a cheapo chassis, and then I'd not worry about putting it into a wall while at the roadcourse.
    Don't dial 911, dial 1911!

    be a cool swap for sure, but just cost so much dang money... I've thought about it several times, heck I even figured using a LS4 trying to get the price down and it was still going to be $5000+

    LSX swaps arent expensive! If you have a welder and fab skills its easy.
    buy a 5.3 for $500
    buy a couple hundred dollar 4l60e or th350/glide/th400
    fuel pump
    harness and computer for 300
    beer

    patience, which you cant buy, and in which I do not have...thats the hard part

    Enjoy the LSx engines while you can. Since GM sold their soul to the Federal Sith, you guys can fap over hypermiling your Chevy Volts in a few years.

    You can add Lincoln Mark VII LSC to that list. And 12.9@106 if they need that info. Stock LS1 and 4L60.
