I know old thread. But I question why anyone would want to do this? For the amount of money it would cost to get an LS1, change the ECM, make everything work correctly, not to mention skinned knuckles you could take the money and and build up the LT1 and smoke most LS1 cars.

Just doesn't make sense to me. Even the cool factor isn't that great, big deal LS1 in a C4, what a waste of time and money.

Oh, I thought since 95 was in your user name I figured you'd have an LT1. I still think it would be more beneficial and easy to hop up a motor already in the bay.

Well, whatever you do good luck with it.
