go lsx

Makes for an awesome car, but not cheap. I would have done this too except I had half the parts I needed for a turbo swap already, it was far cheaper and I am only 75 Hp down from a stock ls1 and I haven't even strapped the GT37 on yet.

An ls1 swap is going to cost him at least $4,000 (if he gets a t56, connects the speedometer and make appropriate drivetrain upgrades).
