Re: where can i get an ls1 conversion done near fl??
I would start by going to any speed shop (Place that sells stuff for american cars, not imports) Those guys usually know of shops that specialize in that sort of thing. Also, you could check with engine rebuilding shops and restoration shops.
Good luck!

Jaysz28: did you do the swap yourself? How much did you spend in parts? I am looking at having a shop do mine.
