As far as the iron block thing goes, ive looked at doing a 302 and supercharging it , but cost wise ill be doing more then bolt ons to keep up with a stock ls1 (factoring the small difference in weight). I personally have not done and lsx swaps but seem to find the most info on the ls1 compared to the 2 or 6. As far as the rear end goes...im still deciding on what to do there. Options so far are a turbo II rear end and pray it can handle the power, or a solid rear axel and get a custom drive shaft. Im going with coilovers but since ill be swapping the rear end im still trying to figure out what type ill need to go with. The car is currently four lug and ill need to swap five lug knuckles up front.
The LS1 in the vette is the same LS1 in the F-body. However, as someone said earlier, the rest of the driveline is different. While it does utilize the T-56 transmission, the vettes is located in the rear. (Engine > Bellhousing > torque tube > transmission > differential). The vette motor with a little more HP is the LS6 that came out of the Z06. It essentially has a different intake, heads, and cam to pump the HP from 350 to 400. All these can simply be swapped or upgraded if you’re going for more HP. Honestly, get a LS1 driveline out of a FBody and you’ll already have a rocket ship. You can make upgrades from there. I’d assume you could drop in the driveline via purchasing or making some custom motor/trans mounts. Assuming your stock differential could handle it, you could get a custom driveshaft made to mate from the output on the T56 to your differential. In this, you don’t need to upgrade your knuckles and other crap.

Rotarys look fun to mess with though.

Nice FC. Any motor at 300+hp is gonna make this thing fly.

just curious why you would even get the car anyways? its not even a good looking shell and you're swapping out the rotary, seems like a waste. just my opinion, but good luck on whatever you decide to go with.

you dont need to build really anything on the 6.0. just throw a little boost to it and keep the majority of the motor stock. it will turn that little car into a fucking rocket.
