Tuning 650.00
Wheels and tires 1000.00
Other little parts fluids/fuel lines/fuel pump 800.00
Car 10900.00

Around 28K as is.

No spacers on the rims fit perfect. Pulling the motor out this winter to upgrade with 427 block and turbo kit possibly. I do have power steering and the AC is in just havent connected the ac lines since I'm about to pull the motor to upgrade. The car is a daily driver if need be. I bought this car just to do this. Had the motor ripped out less than 48 hours of buying. If I had all the parts ready for the swap it could be done in two days. Its very simple and I have figured out all the odds and in to a great setup. Cooling was the biggest problem. Solved and havent lost to any car that has pulled up next to me. For some odd reasons these mustang seem to keep finding me. Guess they think I have a exhaust leak on my V6. LOL. Thanks for all the comps. Car is to be used for THMotorsports.com If yall need parts look them up for great buys. Thanks again. Also all the work ( engine build and install ) was completed by me and the wife. If you do the swap I dont mind answering any of your questions.
I got a question, where'd you find a wife like that?



Awesome swap. Cost doesn't seem to bad, I want to do this, except on a 350z.

Everything works but the tach. I heard hinson makes a tach kit to make it work but I'm not paying that much for something I can get done cheaper. I'm all about my motor. I'd rather spend every dollar in the motor than anything else. I dropped my transmission out today and have bad clutch issues. I'm putting a level 3 clutch in since I'm about to turbo the car this winter. I'll drive it for another two months and then its getting broke down and made into a build 427 LS2 turbo engine. Not sure on the power I'll have but I would like to be the first G35 to ride a wheelie in the 1/4 lol. If you do the swap and have any questions let me know. Also Some people said they didn't have heating issues after their swap with stock rad. Well I did and a few others did as well. Now I run a LSX rad from summit racing. Its a dual pass with the stock G35 fans reverse and it works perfect. I can set in traffic in 112* temps and keep my car at 190* all day.

Why why? Not like you'd be using the transmission or the ECU/TCM. Everything will be changed.
