I'm new and would like to see your V8 conversions. Please attach a photo & describe your ride. Mine has custom built 350 Chevy onboard.

Just removed the LS1/T56 out of my car to upgrade to a LS2.

'73 240Z with a LT-1/T-56 from a '95 Firebird. JTR motor mounts, home made transmission mount. Wiring underway, but it does start and the engine idles great!

This is not mine. He stopped by in late 09 and has done changes since these photos. His web site is http://www.ratzun.com/

At the time of the photos it was a 502 Chevy with an 1171? blower, E85, street legal drag car! This car had had many incarnations over the years.

Within our conversation, we came to the conclution he was the one that rebuilt my 73 engine at the Datsun dealership where he worked in 1980.
