I have two LS swapped vehicles. A Datsun 280z with a 5.3 and a T56. I also just built a CJ7 with a 5.3 and a Dodge NV4500. My plan is to eventually Turbo the jeep and use LS droid to control it.

Welcome to the forum. 30+ years ago I built a Scarab clone and it was fast enough to get me into a bunch of trouble. I can only imagine an LS powered version.

Keeping traction is def a problem. I need to add flares to it so I can get a 275 tire at least. I will add a cam to it but other than that I am not in the need for a ton of power in it.

Are you still running IRS? I went through a pile of U joints in my 240 before helping the R&P to achieve escape velocity on a hard 1-2 shift. I installed a 280ZX diff but it really could have used a stronger rear.
