damn jack, it would be to see a vk56 in there. although right now price seems to be my limit.

engine w/ wiring harness: $1500
Ecu: $250
tranny adapter: $750
flywheel adapter: ???
custom mounts for engine: ???
custom fab headers to fit: ???
other parts: ???

I'm guessing at a minimum its going to be around $5000

don't get me wrong, it would be sick but I'd have to get some sick deals before this happened. seems more productive to just slap a stillen supercharger on to get the same performance.

custom headers and mounts shouldnt be too expensive.

vk56 for 1500-2300 > ls2 dropout for 6k

While you're searching for all these parts, who is going to do the labor?
