VX Gen3 Ls1 engine in a commodore?

[JesseROFL]

hey guys, i was just curious as to how much trouble and money it would cost me to put a VX Ls1 Gen 3 engine into my VL?

thanks

probably best to head over to calaisturbo forums, as a few guys have done the conversion.

The general rule is... sell the VL and buy a VT II or VX with a Gen3... works out about the same price but is a lot more car/less screwing around.

If you want to do it as a project, they do make quick cars.... but its still a 20 year old car and only worth a few $k.

If you do the work yourself it should cost around $5k + what ever you pay for the engine/box/loom
