are you trying to rig it into the SVX system? I know that there is MILES and miles of harness, and hundreds of individual conections to sort on a full Corvette system, as well as the Camaro. or are you planing on just running a stand alone with the motor?

If I were doing it, I'd get a prewired kit for the LS1, and then it's plug and play, just 3 wires to hook up the fuse box (I believe)...and one to the fuel pump.

to make the wiring more simplistic id buy a bunch of universal autometer gauges for the main cluster. Thats what one of the guys with a 300zx/ls1 swap did.

just buy a 928 and use the SVX as a winter beater.

Then you would have spent all the money, Still wouldn't be as fast, and have large bills to pay when something breaks.. which it will. Sounds like a horrible idea

probably faster - 172mph. i spent $80 on repairs in 5 years on the '87 928 (mods and preventative maintenance was purely optional on my part). i spent WAY more in 3 years on the '97 SVX in repairs. sounds like a great idea.

well while you cook up an LS1 swap I will be blowing doors off other cars... I think that is the point being made. It is not economically efficient and it is not time efficient, what the hell is it except the right to say, I have an LS1 SVX which means nothing to a fanatic anyway... point being, an LS1 isn't worth the hassle for an SVX, work with the biggest production motor Subaru has and make it happen.
