you might want to think this over a bit more, if you care about looks, Then don't get a ls1. A 98 Cobra would be kinda cool. But just remeber your gonna lose money and I still belive that a fox mustang is one of the best looking mustangs when done right. I can't really see your car cause of the people in the way .

keep the fox and swap in a larger motor.

351w swaps are quite easy and can be fruitful...

once im finished with MY 351w swap, i'll b eating up LS1's

The LS1 motor is an awsome motor. I think it's better than Ford's OHC engine. The problem is, the car it come in sucks, unless you're getting a Vette. Ask yourself this. IF you had to get the V-6 version of either car, which would you go with? The user friendly Mustang, or the VERY unuser friendly Camaro? Also, IMO Camaros are ugly as fug. Yes, they do have an awsome motor (I think pushrod motors are better than OHC, that's why I keep gettin' Fox Mustangs) though.
