240sx ls1 engine swaps becoming popular

I have been researching recently and have noticed and become interested in putting an ls1 into a 240sx... someone (i think on this forum im not sure) claims to have done it with $3500. so to have that kind of stock power really interests me...any opinions???

o i also found this video of one

or you could copy the other swap guy on here who swapped in a twin turbo vh45 infiniti v8

well you can try to do it, but its going to be a lot of custom stuff like engine mounts, drive shaft, shifter, axles....etc, but its been done before...heck, i even seen a LS1 in a civic hatchback... http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/showthread.php?t=730443&page=1&pp=20 he bought both of the cars, was doing the swap and it didnt cost him over a grand...but into the 240 it'll be a little easier, but it'll be pretty nice to see it http://http://img124.imageshack.us/img124/6738/img2357gf2.jpg

Hi :) Newbie here. The most expensive part of the swap is the engine itself! If u do ur own fabrication..better for ya. I am a total fan of this swap!!!
