Hi all,
Has anyone ever heard of a mgb v8 conversion using a ls series chevy engine??? i went to the kitcar show today and my eye was drawn to the LS3 engine on display.... massive power and not much bigger than my rv8 engine in my mg.... food for thought me thinks

Thanks for the link its very interesting.. is the LS1 same size as the LS2/LS3 ?? ... It looks like the engine would fit into the mgb without doing all the suspension mods the he done,mx5 front end etc .. The sump shape looks to suit the mgb front crossmember!.. I love the foam dummy engines that you can get over there...what a good idea,makes trial fitting a piece of cake.... i would like to do this one day
