hey everyone I am in the beginning stages of a 1997 camaro LT1 to LS1 swap.
I was going to just put new head gaskets in the Lt but a LS came up at a smoking deal. problem is the LS needs a few parts. now i know some of the external LS parts and accessories are interchangeable but I can not seem to get solid answers from the "experts" up here.
so ill run a list and if anyone can give me a direction on which other gm vehicles i can pilfer parts from or even where i can get a good deal on aftermarket or used.

Needed so far
:fuel rails and injectors --- i have the stock LS1 intake
:alternator
:air cond compressor
:power steering pump
:mounting brackets for the above 3
:flex plate that will bolt up to the 97 460le
:water pump --- i know napa will have this. thought id throw it out there
:coils
:motor mounts --- i think this is solved already.

ANY imput is welcome from anyone who has done this style swap.
thanks
Cole

I am fairly sure you can find most of that stuff right here in the classifieds, no?

If not, many of the vendors that show up always on the right side of this board will have aftermarket options.

Step one: remove old engine
Step two: Put in ls1
Step three: go get ice cream mmmmmmmm

eBay is your friend. Sometimes Craigslist. Change the k frame and steering rack to LS style

What he said , the Merv has a lot of great info in that sticky, Im in the middle of doing the swap myself on my 93 to 5.3 and I found the sticky to be the most helpful piece out there.

As everyone stated, there is TONS of info on this board. As far as parts we keep many parts in stock for your conversion. If you choose not to tackle the wiring yourself we also offer a plug and play harness that will fit better than factory, It even has the factory firewall grommet.
