Geez after reading this thread through I have learned some humility. The creativity of some of these conversions is astounding. I have a 85 Porsche 944 that really could use some reliable power. Initially I was going to an LT1 but the reduced weight of the LS plus that it is an incredible engine makes it a great candidate for this fine little car.

Art Carr is supposed to be the TH200r4 guru, I think Super Chevy just had a great article on that trans, it can me made to work well I'm told
__________________ 1935 Ford Sedan, 2000 LS-1, Z06 intake and springs (soon to be stroked LQ9 with L92 heads and GM Perf 4 barrel intake and 90mm F.A.S.T tb), stock 4L60E, 9" Ford, 3.70 gears with a four-bar setup, Moser axles, disc brakes on all corners. My car is truely a "hybrid", it burns gasoline AND rubber.
I'm planning on doing the old S-10 conversion leaning towards an LS2 but might just do an LS6 instead. Right now I'm setting up the suspension and brakes. And then I'm gonna do the old M/C and I'm thinking an LS7, what the hell right? Gotta do the Blazer X first. I got the whole suspension on the way and the 18" Boyds then I'm gonna upgrade the rear (8.5" 10 bolt) and then do 13" ssbc fronts and leave the stock 12" discs in back.

Keep in mind, the stock booster probably wont clear the GEN3/4 motor. I am going Hydroboost on my truck with a similar conversion.......
I am still learning so I'm not actually doing the build. A buddy of mine will be doing most of the work for me. This thing should be finished some time in the end of April or the beginning of May of this year (2005). It's gonna be sick. The only thing that's holding me up is the sale of my Eclipse. That's where my money is right now. If I could get it sold I could start with the major build.
I haven't exactly started them yet but I've got a '56 Belair, '57 Belair, and a '66 Chevy truck that will be getting LS1 swaps when I leanr more about all the details
