Getting the AC and PS working will help a lot. Good luck with your project and feel free to contact me if you have any questions along the way. I can't express enough how much I love My LS3 M3 even after owning a few very nice LSx FD's
   

This.

 I absolutely LOVE mine.  I bought Ls1-FD's 440ci M3 and use it as my daily.  Motor's out now to fresh'n up the rings/ bearings but when I drive it I get about 20 mpg on the freeway with 520+ rwhp on tap.  Handles amazing too.

Faster = better.   Proven fact.   Well, my wife disagrees, but that's her problem.

Heres my latest build thread. It might help you with compiling a list of what you will need.

Your car is awesome.  That would be my next build if my wife would ever let me build another.

Jim?...

No LSx for now.  Whipple style twin screw supercharger for the 6cyl should be in my hands in a few days, I hope.

From what I've seen on Bimmerforums, 17 grand and up for LSx cars.
You can make a barn door fly with enough horsepower.

Retirement at last.  Wife's not happy, I bought a '66 Rustang instead of paying off my F150.
