LS as in LSx, the modern v8's. LS1 being a very common one since it was in the camaro's and firebird's. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LS_bas...l-block_engine

I am sure the $ cost will be huge, and then if you ever wanted to sell the car, good luck finding a buyer.

I got the steering box and linkage from Australia, and did the rest myself. It wasn't as much as you think, mostly labor figuring out how to put it back together.
It is sooo much fun to have people do a double and triple take when they look at the car.
I have had a few offers to sell the car- but then what ?
There are a few more in the USA, including the Corvette Summer car which is steered by a set of motorcycle chains under the dash.
Anybody can own a Corvette, but how many have righthand drives ?

However, i live in England where all cars are RHD. Everyone here knows the Corvette is the premier American sports car and will therefore be LHD, so mine will stay as such.
