Who done it?

You may have the first LS based 100 that is not 2 wheel drive

According to his thread, his is not running yet. You could still be the first one to have one running first. Go get busy

He states it's running through his emails but needs me to get some things squared out on it. May need to do a hot lap in this bad boy! Jk..

Last update was in March of 2014. I wonder if it got stalled...

Hope you were planning on at least an LS3... You might need to turbo yours to take the crown back...

I'm thinking 6bt with twins should be plenty..

Going for the first 6BT based 100 now?

Ok I drove that 2wd 100 today after getting his tach working. Let me say this I want an ls3 powered 100 haha... Fastest naturally aspirated LC I bet

There is a guy out on 7th ave and Carefree Hwy that I heard has done a few LS motors in LC, same guy?

 

[blatant]

Curious, How many of those LS motors (in general) have several hundred thousand miles, say 250-300k with regular, preventative main't?

reminds me of when i was a poor college student tuning my volvo 740 and this guy did this, twin turbo vette motor swap into a 740 wagon: http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=158835

aka the volvette

A lot. The LSx motor is a solid unit. The 6.0 in my '04 Denali didn't burn a drop of oil and had zero issues at 210k when I sold it. Rest of the truck, well that is another story.

Not sure but I could give him a few pointers though =D

[Hendrik]

So how many 100 series trucks are there with LS3 conversions?

 

[RockJock82]

Only 1 I have personally seen.
