after some tooing and froing...... We are leaning towards an LS1 at the moment.
but nothing set in stone as yet.........

But thanks to everyone that has contributed, it is all very much appreciated and I'm quite happy to continue to hear you thoughts on theuit these puppies subject.

Also, is there an easy to fit Power steer rack option out there that will suit these puppies?

That I don't know...yet. But I do have access to a couple that I can measure up and suss out.

Is the LS conversion in a CF, something that has been done before? I would be surprised if it hasn't ....as it would probably be the only vehicle on the planet that hasn't had one shoe horned into it :D
