If you want wide wheels and don't want to bitch about fitment, you need more fender. It's science.

Thanks! pretty wild. Car has been in LSX magazine, Dragzine, S3 Magazine. crazy.

There are a few factual inaccuracies in this article, but good enough. And weird a couple of the things that were written and plenty of other good content not included. I basically wrote the whole article myself, including most of the text not quoting me. (other than the intro). But I didn't say it was the first LS swap. I also didn't say that I needed to engineer the Kirkey's to fit. lol. And that's a quote supposedly. lol

Still super cool!!!!

Congrats, but bittersweet. No mention of the fog lights.

AUDI AWD transmissions are very compact and they seem to take power.

AUDI AWD transmissions are very compact and they seem to take power.

I need it to hold 14-1500whp as a start. (And a lot of tq,,,in the 1300 range). Car will be getting an LSX 427 and twin 72’s. Which can be upgraded to twin 78’s as a quick bolt on. Or twin 80’s with a GT45 backside with a little more work.

My biggest concern right now for power holding, is the front axles. Which I haven’t totally figured out yet but have a phased approach of ideas.

If it’s the Audi trans I think you are mentioning, it requires sticking the motor super far forward so that the output of the front axles are in line with the wheels. The opposite of what I want to do.

My glide should hold. If not, a built TH400 will hold. I think the glide will be fine. My trans guy would prefer a TH400 but says if I tighten up the converter, keep temps in check, glide will work.

If you go with the external oil pump you can make your oil pan any shape you want.

I still have to leave room for 4” stroke so doesn’t really help make it any shallower than it is now.

I meant to give you more room for the steering rack. Nissan GT-Rs have smaller transfer case so maybe you can make that fit.

He'd need the entire ATESSA unit to operate the GTR transfer case as it is a hydraulic unit.

No. You just need the pump.
The Tcase looks small here.
