Ls6 & Th400
Well Ihave been looking at threads for a few hrs and I can't find anything that realates to what I want to do.
As far as I can tell the RX7, Fox Body and S-10 boys have this conversion forum pluged up.
I have a 94 V6 Firebird that I bought for 800 and I'm going to build a LS6 with a Carbed set up useing the Eddelbrock setup with the MSD box to control the coils.
I'm striping this whole thing!!
This is going to be a Race Only car so I only need Oil, Fuel, Trans, and cooling gauges for this along with teh sensors that control the MSD box.
I have done searches and I cant find anything on doing this combo
Every one is doing a standard auto or a T-56 swap with the fuel injection and stock wire harness.
Can any one help me with this conversion??
If I left something out that you need to know just ask.
Thanks!

What do I need to do this?
What about engine mounts & tranny mounts?
Will LS Long Tubes fit this car?
What kind of stuff do I need for the trany to work with the TH400?
I want to go with a tubular K Memeber, what one will work with my car?
Does any one have any sites that can help me?
I know I need a LS Rack and stearing assembly to work with this.

1. any ls engine mounts will work for you in an ls k member. being race only, i would suggest solid mounts, or at a minimum the poly engine mounts. for the tranny mount your gonna need bmr's th400 crossmember with torque arm relocation. i would also suggest using a poly mount between the trans and crossmember.
2. yes
3. all this info is in these two links...most of it is more of a swap (4l60 to th400 or t56 to th400) but you should be able to find all the info you need to make the trans work in your application...

https://ls1tech.com/forums/automatic-transmission/197642-what-would-you-like-see-addressed-th400-faq.html
4. there alot of options on k members. the most versatile one, i think, is the bmr...you can get it with alot of options and there are alot of guys that use their stuff without any problems
5. ls1tech.com! all the info you've asked about, i found on this site.
6. not necessarily...i'm not familiar with the ltx f-bodies, but i believe they have the same front suspension. and if you go with the bmr crossmember you can get it with ls motor mounts, and setup for a pinto manual rack...
hope this helps you some.
