And on the highway you can cruze at a descent speed without the worrie of engauging VTEC or sitting in the higher RPM's were gas consumption will be at its worst. If there was 1 thing I could pick out of the tranny for better it would be 3rd gear, thats it. Its a tad long for my tastes but nothing horrible or unmanagable. swaping a GSR 3rd gear in its place would make the LS tranny a TOP choice among the Turbocharged or Forced induction crowed

Back on topic If you would like an Idea as to a complete "TO-DO" list and costs, look in the Shop List on this forum and call a few of them. Im sure most of them listed will have a pretty good general idea as to the cost of the swap you are looking for and mabye a few good ideas to boot

True... on all what you said... i guess if you go boost.. ls tranny ant a bad way too go... DEPENDS on WHAT HE WANTS TO GO BOOST/ALL MOTOR??
