sweet man...i think im starting to get the ls bug as well...im probably goin ls then boosting it:D

i havent done too much research on it yet, but youre gonna need the mounts(hcp, or hasport) and shift linkage...the easiest ls swap comes out of the 90-91, as it has a cable tranny, as well as obd0. I read somewhere all you do, is use your SI harness, and plug it right into the new motor, and use the LS ECU, and youre good to go..im hoping thats the case anyway:D
as for the price importautosalvage.com has them for like 1200 shipped, and im sure nippon is cheaper than that...but i just havent checked.
If I learn anything new ill let you know as well;)

peace
