I posted this in the LT1 section too, but I'm getting an LS1 swapped into my car in a couple months. Using Speartech to modify the LS1 harness for my car. And I'm getting the whole front k-member including the motor, brakes, steering, a-arms. etc etc... so pretty much the whole front end is coming from one car to mine, and a bunch of cleanup.

I'm having a local guy/friend do the work who is hooking me up. Is there general recommendations or feedback you guys can give me? Just looking for pointers and things.

Heres' my donor:

What are they charging these days to convert that LS1 harness to fit the LT1 car?

Sreartech can probably do it for less and it will be perfect.

I'm definitely not tackling re-wiring it myself, I'll let a pro do that so I know it's done right.

I personally have not found info on it, but according to the guy who's doing my work it does. He runs an F-body warehouse pretty much.
