VERTEX | JZS160 Multipurpose Build Street/Track = FUN!!! (PICS)
how much does an ls1 engine cost nowdays? i know ebay sells at a premium and i don't check gm forums often enough to know how much it is
So DGR Fab's design engineer finally came through to lay down the final design so we could get it over to the machine shop for production. Soon kits will be available for purchase - don't worry if you have a SC or IS or any application this kit will likely work for you. Will just need a few measurements so contact DGR Fabrication if you have questions. If you want to read the whole update just click through the pic!
Yah those are just the prototypes...

The hoops arrived the other day and Dan and Luke at DGR Fabrication got down to business...
didnt even put 2 and 2 together that this was your build thread lol i read it once when you were talking of putting the 2jz in it, and kinda passed it by......now your talking lsx, you have my complete and undivided attention lolol
Thanks man this is from the mount post but since I haven't updated this thread lately with stuff because I'm waiting for the car to come back from paint I figured I'd leave this up
If you haven't seen my build thread yet you can click on the image and get the full lowdown thus far. I've been working with DGR Fabrication on a GM LSX motor mount kit for my 2GS and other Lexus applications. The final mounts should be in this week. I'll be posting more info on this thread about the kit as soon as Dan at DGR Fab finalizes everything and the motor is back in my car. These should also work on SC's!
I chose the LSX motor path as it was a more cost effective way to go than the 2JZ-GTE route. We're looking forward to seeing more GS's do this motor swap. This is only one mount - tranny mount/crossmember to follow soon and it will include everything you'd need to complete the swap.

LSX + T56 Tremec = Cheap reliable power and fun.
I'm very interested in a mount kit for the SC. I assume the motor mounts should be the same but the tranny crossmember may be different. I'm following closely.........

Yep exactly! I believe Dan is planning on building a SC when my car is done so we'll know about that tranny crossmember. But if anything should be a sinch for them to fab up.
Your build continues to surprise me. Keep them coming.
