Dip is trying to give you some evidence that he's witnessed and corroborates with others'... so bro. what are you really trying to do here- are you trying to gather information or are you trying to convince us that your idea is sound and you won't have to throw more money into your pipedream ls rig? |

Look guys, I get your point. The stock transmission is NOT the best (or even a viable) option for an LS swap (I never did say it was) - but please understand that the point of this thread was not to gauge opinions. My only question was if somebody has developed a method to mate the stock transmission to an LS series motor. If someone had already made a solution for this, I would have considered using it, but based on your responses it appears nobody has (or ever will). You win, I'll find a T56 and break that instead

Koa Dipstik-sportech Since you both seem to know a bit more about the swap than me anyways, perhaps you could shed some light on a different aspect of it?
I already all the mechanical parts of the build taken care of. Yes I will still need to find a T56, but that's not going to be a big deal. I will be running a standalone engine management & fuel injection system on the motor. Getting the motor itself running properly and tuned will be NO problem. My question is, do you know what I will need in order to make the rest of the factory electronics work well enough for me to be able to drive the car? Gauges and other amenities aren't a big deal, I just need to be able to start the car, drive it without traction control interfering, etc. Any input you give would be appreciated here

lots of discussion already on how to make the BCU and other systems, including Traction Control, to work with the car. |
