[T Cruze]

Someone ask if an LS swap in a Cruze had been done yet or even possible? Well how about trying 2006 through 2011 Impala SS. The Impala came with a FWD 5.3 litre LS. It produced 303 up @ 5600 rpm and 323 lb ft of torque @ 4400 rpm. The 2006 Impala has a wheelbase of 110.5 inches and my 2015 Cruze is right at 105. Could be interesting. I'm going do some additional research but if anyone can help me with good info I'm down for that. Plus, the price of a mid 2000's Impala SS is very reasonable, if you want the whole car, which I think is the way to go.
BTW, I've had all the same problems I've read about throughout the forum and more, but I still love this 2015 lt rs.

Welcome Aboard!

Anything is possible, most things are not probable or at least affordable.

I thought someone swapped in a modern v6 turbo from a caddy into a Cruze
