That is a nice car. I have a few LS1 conversion threads and I know a few people who have done it so if I have any questions, I can just ask them. Good find.

I've been to their site before. I even told Sean(urslow) to check them out and their prices for his swap. Lethal I think was way cheaper, that's why he went with them.

How is your car comming along anyway? I'm guess since we havn't seen your car in months they are still working on it. Hopefully they are done with your car before I finish mine. What wiring harness are you going with anyway? The one that came with the motor? I'm still undecided weather to buy a 98 T/A harness or go with an aftermarket such as Painless/Speartech/Waterworks/F.A.S.T.

It is basically the same as when I took it over there. I am not trying to knock them but it is taking a very long time. I do not know when I will have mine car done. I bought a standalone harness from this place on the internet. I forgot the name but it was cheaper than the rest. Also make sure you keep the bulkhead connector you will need that.

Have you gone over there and asked when they are going to start it? Should be done by now, or atleast pretty deep into the swap.

I'll knock 'em...they are F*ing under staffed for the amount of work they have. They only have 3 fulltime techs. and work until 10:30PM during the week sometimes and on weekends. Its not so much that they are slow as they are over flowing with work. Best thing to do is throw occasional cash towards your final bill in their face while going WTF is going on...things will get done much quicker that way because they know you are not just waiting for it to be idley finished and then have to figure out last minute where to get the money to pick it up like the rest of their customers.

I was going over there every week, but I just go every couple of weeks or whenever now. I agree that they are over worked and under staffed. They have lost 2 people since my car has been there so that is a main reason they are behind. Since it is not my main car I have not been making a big fuss and just been real patient. I have offered money, but I have paid them for all the stuff I have bought. They just need to do the work and I can pay them for the labor. Other than that my hands are pretty much tied for now.

This is the cleanest LS1 swap I have ever seen, and Brian it's the white car you posted up before. I'm really going to take my time and do this right the first time, and since im registered in florida, I have no need for smog/emissions equipment so I want to make mine just as clean....except I want A/C.
