Kudos to you for doing this. The purist will go puke now. Me, I don't care. Glad someone had the courage to do it. More reliable than boost itremai s to be seen. Share your numbers.

Is this the first 370 LS swap?

I know back when I had my 07' they had a few 350s with LS3/5's IIRC

You should leave the exhaust stock then have some cut outs for an ultimate LS sleeper status. What tranny did you use or did you get an adapter plate made?

Right now it just has longtube headers that come out to 3" .. not sure if the show is going to do something custom or just weld up the oem exhaust...

even with stock exhaust, there's no way to hide the sound of a cammed LS3

Tranny is a 6L80 . i wanted to have paddle shifters

I think there are 2 or 3 other RnD Ls370s but im the only 6L80

Interested to hear how much weight (if any) is saved and/or moved further back in the car with the tranny.

Shouldn't the center of gravity be slightly lower now that you don't have DOHC anymore?

Hi Folks,

I emailed Joey from Fueled Racing regarding V8 conversion kit.
Seems like a decent kit and price point as well - with the current exchange rate against the Aussie dollar, still not bad.

Of course I was expecting this would only suit LHD in relation to the headers - but the headers can be designed locally.

I'm going to do a little more home work to see how this kit stacks up to Australian ADR complainace......

I have been doing a lot of considering/research into getting replacement for my engine/driveline - to go FI and get strengthened internals etc but the costs are very high.

I am seriously considering this route LS3/tranny to suit as LS3's are EVERYWHERE and mods are very cheap to achieve respectable NA power.....

So for those who are interested - I have cut/pasted the email reply that gives the V8 conversion kit items.

Cheers
-------------------------------------------------------------

The 370Z kit we have currently is for LHD. The only thing that is different is the long tube headers. We need a RHD 370Z to design the RHD headers.

We can sell the Basic kit now and that is everything but the long tube headers.

The Basic kit comes with
Billet Engine Mounts
Tubular transmission mount
Driveshaft
Oil Pan
Oil Pan pickup tube
Oil pan stud kit billet dip stick
Oil filter relocation housing
Oil filter lines and fittings
Power steering lines and fittings

The basic kit is $2450 and is in stock. We will not be making the RHD headers until we can get a RHD 370Z.

Thanks Joey@FueledRacing

Does the oem tachometer still work with the swap kit? I remember when the first ls3 swap kit came out for the brz, the tachometer didnt work

To use the oem tach i bought "Dakota Digital SGI-8 Tachometer Interface Adapter" to convert the signal from the eng to tach... you can do the same or get a new tach

blak max 07-18-2015 07:00 PM

Latest update : They have the engine running, but have more to do...

Jordo! 07-18-2015 07:15 PM

Wow -- good luck! Looking forward to results :tup:
