LS2 swap by KAB Customs with Pure Automotive Motec - Page 12 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Was the wireing difficult? Or did they make straight forward adapters for an ls swap on these cars already

I'm using the Motec package from @Pure Automotive and their solution is plug and play, so no need to mess with wiring.

I have the Sikky pan with CX Racing mounts and the sway bar fits. Fitment varies per motor and setup obviously but in my particular case, Vette LS2, I needed a 1/4" plate to raise the engine a bit to clear the steering rack and sway bar, with the added benefit the oil fittings are now more accessible and will work and not need to modify the pan. The sway requires a slight grind on the rear oil pan webbing. The Sikky pan includes a rear transmission cover while the CX Racing pan does not.

Vette LS2? are you referring to the oil pan? I thought it was the GTO pan that fit not the vette?

Vette LS2 I meant the engine I have. I say this because from what I've gathered, the LS1, LS3 all fit slightly different while using the same CX Racing mounts.

Yes, the GTO pan is the only front sump OEM LS pan, all others are rear sump and do not fit with the stock steering rack.

Oh I see. That makes sense.

FYI the CX Racing mounts plus the Tremec TR-6060 from 2010-2015 camaro with it's OEM shifter puts the shifter just about 1" back compared to stock.

Which notch did you install the engine on? Second from the front?

I don't remember, I think it was the first one?

What’s the hold up on that? Nobody local can make the line?

I’m waiting for a set of headers...otherwise I’m ready to go. Think you’re closer to getting it running than I am though..... I’m impatiently waiting to see our cars up and running .

Ordered the OEM one from a GM dealer, had like a 10 day waiting period, but it's already shipped and on the way.
