Ok,.....it's official......have struck a deal to do a LS1 swap on my FRS. The only big issue right now is power steering which will have to be be figured out as no one is sharing and no kit has addressed this yet,....everything LS engine wise will be OEM except maybe stiffer valve springs. Talking with the tech at Track Works at Ft.Worth as far as the balance of the car if anything it should improve,....the weight difference engine wise is negilable,... a Tremec T56 transmission going in,.. which is a great deal heavier than the Aisin but, the added weight is more centered and rearward .....see nothing put positives and no negatives for the swap except the cost. Will be selling a bunch of parts on my current setup piece meal or,. as a package as soon as they come off.....built forged engine 9.5 to 1 compression, transmission, turbo kit, DSS carbon fiber driveshaft, Perrin oil cooler, .....etc....etc....to anyone interested.

Additions that were just installed below.
