LT1->LS1 Front End swap I'm not really interested in actually doing it... but I remember there was a thread where someone did it. Anyone have a linky? They switched the hood+bumper cover at least i believe

The hood, the front bumper and bumper reinforcment, both headlight assemblies, and both front fenders must be replaced. The 98-02
T/A was about four inches wider in the front than earlier models. For that very reason, and LS1 bumper will bolt up to the radiator support on any 93-02 chassis, but not to the fenders in any way shape or form.
Of course you'll also need new turn signal lenses and fog lights.

You have to change out the hood, front bumper, headlight assemblies, impact bar, styrofoam, bumper support, fenders, fender brackets, modify the wiring for the lights, and I believe that is it. Am I forgetting anything guys? Still trying to get mine painted cause I got screwed by going through a friend.
Thanks,
