looking for someone who has done a LS based motor in a fox mustang? looking for header info? carb conversion answers? What transmissions can u use 350 or 400 will they bolt up? what a LS-LQ9 motor is worth? thanks GARY

Did you guys have to move the steering wheel in order to cock the steering shaft to clear the headers? Mine is awfully close

iirc, we moved the column in the available space, but we have some weird bends in one header tube as well
 
Here is my LQ9

2, I have an aluminum LS1 with a set of diamonds for a 383 all machined with callies main caps and I have this LQ9.

I am doing the LQ9 with my ported 853's and a cam. It will be a carb setup.

I dont have the cash to buy the crank and rods for the LS1 engine so its gonna sit. I might sell the pistons I got with it and build a stock cube LS1 later on. Not sure yet. I'm focused on a tight budget so I am going to upgrade the rod bolts on this one and let her rip!
