Were you able to use the original Dash with the GM engine? Did you lose ESP and all that non sense or maintain it? I would love to go GM in my JK on day

We'll do a complete spec list after the build is completed. Until then, we'll sprinkle the data in along with the photos, as we've done so far.

I'm pretty sure all of the stock functionality is retained. Turnkey does an awesome job with their LS/LC swaps, everything is professionally done and looks like factory. Feel free to look them up and give them a call if you're interested in a GM V8 for your Jeep.

Not only hard to ship, it would be next to impossible to install, fully welded. As for making a cage like that a production item, we're not so sure about that yet. Even for a DIY kit, its still a LOT of work to install, and would probably overwhelm our tech support phone lines LOL....
