There are several companies making swap mounts for older small blocks, and I did see a company that also specializes in older Chevy tricks. I dont wanna drop any names if they arent sponsers, but I did find them through Googling then recently.

Not sure if this is the correct place to post but I'm selling a set of the dirty dingo slider gen V swap mounts for $75 shipped. Comes with bolts. Was just used for mock up.

Is the engine in the 2016 Camaro an LS motor or LT1, and how can I determine which one i have.

I'm getting ready to start a Gen V LT1 swap into an 88 IROC. Slowly doing all the research and just started buying parts. One thing seems to be a problem. Headers. I can't find a vendor who makes them for this swap. I found flanges and was wonder if I should just get LS headers and change the flanges. Would this work?

Check out Holley for the swap pan and TB spacer. The pan is like the 2nd, Holley pan. (Fbody)

It appears to me you could possibly swap a Gen V with a LT4 blower and actually fit under the stock 4th gen cowl...I'm very intrigued by this theory

^^This right here. Especially with my 94 Fbody. This would be the biggest hurdle.

That and if it would actually fit in this cramped engine bay with headers.

With my Firehawk hood I have plenty of clearance for the supercharger.

Probably would have to use a 4" exhaust.

BTW am I looking at the schematics right? The fuel pump is on the back of the engine and not in the tank?

The engine fuel pump is the high pressure pump for the DI injectors. You still need a lower pressure pump to supply the DI pump.

Wondering if the Walbro pump I already have is sufficient then.

A Gen V LT1 in a 4th gen would be awesome- especially in a 93-97! Wish I had the $$ for this
