I considered this swap heavily before doing my RB26. It doesn't weigh much more than the KA surprisingly, and of course theres way more potential.

I eventially decided to stick with nissan and go as exotic as I could, but looking back now the LS1 would have been a lot cheaper.

You forgot the BEST engine nissan ever made!!

The RB26DETT

Of course, mine is now a RB26DET. Swapped it to a single GT35R. We're expecting close to 600 hp after the tuning is done.

Will do, don't have much time tonight, but I'll post a thread with details tommorrow.

And hopefully sometime next week I'll get some pics of it up, gonna take a lot of pics while we are taking the engine down for the build up. Been trying to do it for a few weeks now but been to busy.

This weekend has been set aside for this project, and nothing but this project. And my girlfriend isn't to happy about it!:thumb:
