Default Swap

This is a little project I did for a friend of mine..


Here is what we started with..



Started to tear into it..



LS7 Clutch Kit



Stock LS1 F-Body T56



Yes I used a Ratchet Strap to install it..



Installed with the factory Manual Cross Member and Poly Mount..



Here is the Interior..still have some finishing touches to do.

I cut the Pedal and put on a stock Cover, installed a Manual Steering Column Cover after I removed the Shifter, and did a little bit of wiring. The Shifter is a B&M Ripper with a little bit of an extention.





Not too bad for a few days of work, we still have a couple of bugs to work out, it drives very well.

Next is the 6.0l..

Not very much at all..pretty much about a 1" square around the Shifter and laid a piece of Rubber over it.
