^^^ No F'in way.

Running 302 = $500

Running LS1 = $2500

...and you can swap in either motor with a little fabrication skill and a welder.

Now if you had a shop do it for you (ala Hinson)...then yeah, $9,000-10,000.

also.. reason for swap is cheap

a stock sr makes like 200 hp
how is that more power than a stock 5.0

mr_240sx · 06-26-2006, 10:53 AM

so what are you running for power wise josh? any mods done to the motor or is it stock?

***S14DB*** · 06-26-2006, 11:01 AM

Stock 5.0 barely makes 175hp. Can get it upto 190hp with bolt ons.

that just doesnt sound right, r u sure? i figured it would atleast be around 200 or a little bit more....

drew935 · 06-26-2006, 12:50 PM

Isn't it 175hp to the wheels. I could have sworn that that engine does 225hp at the engine. So 175 at the wheels sounds right or so...With what I saw in the engine bay, I would say close to 190+ at the wheels.

5.0L EFI V-8 225hp (HO)

Thre HP of the 5.0 has changed a lot over the years. The later engines got up over 200 HP but the early 5.0's got under 160 HP stock.

gbond15 · 06-26-2006, 02:34 PM

car looked cool at the meet, looked like alot of fab work went into it. It looked like you had to have a custom oil pan made and the location of the shifter location looked really awkward. all in all, good job on the swap, are you going to the drift event at altamont on the 6th. If not bring it out on a friday and tear it up.

I would say go to the friday test days. They are a bit pricy at $150 but you usually have as much track time as you would like.
