Is this swap easy as it looks? 300zx/LS1

Ya looks super easy.

Given the cost of general maintenance of the 300ZXs that swap might actually SAVE you money.

I wonder how much you can pick up a used LS1 for?

Looks pretty good though, must sound like a beast.

I think there in the neighbourhood of $8000 for one of that vintage

I'm guessing that swap would end up costing around 20k

That was on a Ebay bid, if you read the description he says it is easier to buy his car because I think the swap would cost upwards of $20 000, from what I can remember off the top of my head there was fabrication to the engine bay, hood and fenders as well as obvious things like engine etc etc

Even easier in a Z31, trany bolts right up
