Torana LH-UC to LSx V8 CONVERSION

We are also working on the LS1-LS2-GEN111-GENIV V8 conversion for the LH-UC Toranas.

Shown above is our own vehicle with an LS1 sitting in place, as you can see it fits in very well and is a great combination.

We will be able to offer the conversion to suit both the 4L60e Auto trans and the T56 6 speed manual.
This kit will most likely involve engine mount kit, custom sump, transmission crossmember and other parts to assist with the conversion.
