Finally a little update.

Car was all finished last month as far as the engine swap goes.

I've been driving it for about 40days to fine tune some of the mechanical issues.

My speedo, tach are fully functional. I still am working on the AC but I'm holding that off till spring since it's winter. Other than that, it is a pleasant ride.

here are some teaser pictures before I start a new thread with complete bodykit and few other goodies. I just had the whole car(minus front& rear bumpers) painted along with bodykit pieces but have not had a chance to put them on.

Looking pretty swanky. Have you had a chance to take this beast out on the road and rip through some gears yet?

Very clean build. Would you be willing to share the dimensions on the pan modifications and the engine mount's?

No issues so far. I spent around 15k just on engine swap but that's including multiple international shippings and taxes. thanks!

And for all the future swappers,

Tach wire - C11 connector pin16 (Black-Yellow) goes to ls1 c105 G (White)
You want to set the tach signal to 4 (both low&high resolution). this will change your ls1 4cyl signal to our 6cyl tach

Speedo wire - C12 connector pin5 (Blue) goes to ls1 C220 K (Dk green-white)
Luckly we have 4000ppm that matches to t56 signal. just change your final gear/tire sizes on hptuners.

No Dakota digital signal converters(or similar) are needed!

안녕! Welcome to CL

Clean swap, whereabouts in Korea was the swap done? Might have to swing past next time I'm over there just to have a peek.
