Ls1 Hhr

Hello everyone, just wanted to know if anyone has seen an LS1 in an HHR. I saw the V8 panel, and the HHR that Year One did and have the itch to swap in the V8. If anyone has seent this, or in general wants to put out their 2 cents on this new project it would be great.

An LS4 would be a cool swap if you could adapt the W-car power cradle to the HHR's chassis. Otherwise, you could probably fab some steel similar to what those V8 Focus guys are doing.

The only reason I didn't trade my 06' HHR in on the new car was because the resale value stinks.

So in a year or so, the value will be about $4000=5000. At that level, it will be a toy.

Mid engine LS3, here I come....unless something else comes along
