The wiring and fit and finish on alot of that stuff looks horrible.
-Edit..
Engine wiring is just horrible, don't know if that is factory LS1 or not but the way it seems to be ran as well as loom/connectors its just sub-par in my standards.

correct. i've been tracking my blue one for 3 years now.
LS1's can have issues with oil cooling on the track if sessions are 20+ minutes, but this one has a nice oil cooler.
Also LS1's can face oil sloshing during a long turn but this one has an accusump which detects a drop in oil pressure and uses its own reserves.
Also it has "dual" valve springs which is a nice precaution to help prevent valve float and in case a single spring would ever break, the valve won't fall down because of the second spring.
So this one is pretty built up in the reliability dept.

I love the FD with the LS1 swap. Its nothing like seeing a bad *** looking car then hearing that thing fly buy sounding like a bad *** vette... Nice job and good price.
