I was wondering if I would be able to put a LS1 and a 6 speed tranny with 2000 trans am rear end all on a 88 camaro. I know it will take lots of work but is it possible, not really sure my 88 right now is a v6 with a auto , really looking to transform it into a bad ass machine so when i race they dont know what the fuck to say. So I ask again is it possible -The Stig- 09-12-2003, 07:10 PM Is it possible? Yes. Will it be expensive? Very. Time consuming? OH yes. Pain in the Ass? Definately. triplerc 09-12-2003, 11:46 PM wow, lol I knew all that but... would there have to be special mods to be done is what I was trying to get accross. BigJustinZ28 09-14-2003, 11:24 AM you might be better off going with an LT1 setup , from what I understand besides wiring it should almost be a bolt in. The newer rear axle is about 2 inches wider I believe so the wheels will stick out a little bit which looks pretty cool imo . I have 2 inch spacers on my z and it looks awesome . pimpmaro 09-16-2003, 04:30 AM If ya want a badass race machine, I woudln't think about using a stock LS1 F-bod rear. The 10 bolt is weak especially once ya get it on some sticky tires. I'd personally recommend going with a 12 bolt or a 9". BigJustinZ28 09-16-2003, 03:03 PM yeah thats a good idea , these 10 bolts are pretty week , getting ready to give this car its second rebuild , gonna throw some 3.73's in it this time :) muahaha Murco 09-29-2003, 11:08 AM Here is the company you need to contact!

So I ask again is it possible triplerc, Pick up the November 2003 issue of Chevy High Performance. On pg. 54 they have an LS1 into third gen swap. It has a good overview of everything involved. They got most of the info from www.thirdgenresource.com (http://www.thirdgenresource.com) DVS LT1 10-02-2003, 11:29 AM yeah thats a good idea , these 10 bolts are pretty week , getting ready to give this car its second rebuild , gonna throw some 3.73's in it this time :) muahaha :iceslolan You be sure to tell me when you throw those 373's in Justin! :devil: Related Links Enter the largest automotive community on the planet! |
