It's probably easier in later 3rd gens than an older car, but for ls swaps you have to watch the nickle & dime stuff. New headers/exhaust work, mounts, possible fuel system upgrade, getting the gauges to work, harness modification, tuning costs, etc. You can really blow the budget without even trying if you are not careful. Getting everything (engine, trans, PCM/hanress, etc) makes it much easier.

Add some decent heads down the road and you got a nice driver.

You can get that for the same price, no shipping (but add sales tax i guess) at fred beans in PA. Your local dealer might match the price too.
