I don't even want to imagine the fabrication needed to get that thing to fit!

It would be sweet though, oh so sweet.

It's been done before, but not often obviously. Though if all LT5s were only 3000 it might be as popular as the LS1 swaps......NAH!
But it'd still be sweet to do.

If this was available this time last year I would have been all over it. 3000 for an LT5 is a great deal.

That is the same guy that ripped off someone on this board for an LS1 and T56!! The guy wired the money, and then never got the motor!! Don't anyone get into this without finding out more!!! I could be wrong, but all of the details are the exact same. No pay pal, COD's, only a wire transfer, does that no seem fishy to anyone.....Does to me!!

Yeah. That thing about the address was kind of shady. I would have to see it in person before I dropped that kind of cash.
