Wow dude those look like post cards lol. Nice shooting!

Josh this is what i was talking about below; a 350z with a LS9 Engine swap is one of my ultimate dream projects.

350z LS swap FS. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

or this one..

Project Turbo LS2/350z begins. - LS1TECH

These cars have LS2 swaps out of a Corvette ans a GTO But I want the Bigg Daddy in mines... The LS9. Pretty much the Ultimate street engine of our time for any type of hot rod project IMHO. Here she is, along with a quick description;

The most powerful regular-production engines ever produced from GM.

These GM Performance Parts LS9 6.2L supercharged crate engines are the same exact engines that the 2009 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 comes equipped with. They share the 6.2L displacement of other LS engines, but are unique, featuring a stronger block casting, stronger cylinder head castings, and steel cylinder liners that are honed with a deck plate installed to maximize performance and cylinder sealing. High-rpm-validated lightweight reciprocating parts, including titanium intake valves and connecting rods, are used, along with high-flow aluminum cylinder heads that flow the charge forced on them by a sixth-generation supercharger. A revised, higher-helix design delivers greater power at the low end and sustains it longer through the rpm band for broad, on-demand power, whether off-idle or at speed. A dual-brick charge cooler is integrated on a unique manifold system that mounts the "blower" in the engine's valley, with a charge cooler on top. Pick up one of these GM Performance Parts LS9 6.2L supercharged crate engines and you will have the ultimate-production small block Chevrolet engine.

Power output is rated 638hp @6500rpm and 604 lb·ft of torque @3800rpm.
