LS1 into is200

[derko]

Hi

My original plan was the 1UZ with R154..not too sure weather to consider a LS1 Though?

Could anyone help me with the difference in the build ? modifications, costs etc


Much appreciated

LS1 isn't likely to be legal? but definitely the better option on nearly all scores.

What sort of power are you chasing?

Anywhere from 300 - 400hp will be fine ...im guessing the LS1 is more bang for $$$

Any idea where i could get custom engine mounts ?

LSx is def more bang for buck and will do those numbers on just a tune.

Mounts are easily made

Yeh should be good thanks

I found these on ebay..but really would prefer to get the CAD an shop around for a fabricator?, as these are quite exxy

Yeah those prices are ridiculous. Just make a cardboard template yourself and take that in to be fabbed up in 4mm plate. At least you now have an example to follow

Anyone recommend a good diff that will fit my is200 running a LS1 ?

Mainly going to be a street car, with a bit of drifting

JZX100 diff and axles are easy enough to fit into the IS.

OK thanks ill look into it
