Yes that is what you think it is.

6.0L LS2 from a Commodore.

Spotted him tonight at the Barbagallo drift's... He also has a holden T56 behind it, VN tailshaft, big cam and BA XR seats. He showed me dyno sheets with 450+rwhp. He also has a twin turbo kit and nitros to go on it aswell.

I didn't know whether to shake his hand or knock him out. haha.

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up.

This car sounded so good on the track. He wasn't very good though but should be a good drift car when he puts some decent suspension in it.

+11ty for Lsx in Wagon.

The guy reckons he welded the engine mounts, put a t56 behind it and the vn tailshaft bolted straight in. lol Seems easy :S

not a silly idea really, crate ls2's are less than 6k... 270kw and factory fresh...

until ford starts making decent V8s again (if ever) it just might be a popular conversion.

Seems that everyone is doing an LS conversion these days might have to do one in the EL.

Its such a great idea, and so damn easy to do!!

ive been considering doing it in a old falcon, ive done a few in HQ's HZ's and most ive done it for get away with it for less than 5k

Thats it.. LS1 conversions are one of the easier late model engine coversions.

lol, i took a early clubsport for a drive this morning, and the salesman said, "a ls1 goes so easy in one of these..." probly just as well, cos the holden 5 litre was pretty slow, even with a manual behind it.

Its something different, I wouldn't personally do it even though their good engines, cause your gonna constantly get the holden wanker talk "Yeah see you need to put a holden motor in a ford to make it go good"...

Speed determines how fast you hit the Traffic Light....Power determines how far you take it with you.

ABS = spongy brakes, but you'll slow to about 60

non-ABS = lock up at 100 & skid past the roo doing about 95. But you'll look sick doing it :mrgreen:
