It currently has QA1 R-Series coil overs on the front, I ran these with the LT1 setup and I will have to look and see what springs are on them, I have bought different springs for the BBC setup and have not switched them over yet. I can get you some part numbers off the stuff this weekend. I might switch to Afcos so I might be selling this stuff in case you'd be interested

because putting one in a 3rd gen isn't that hard........and you can get headers already made for it.........now something other than a chevy engine you are gonna have to have custom headers........just like putting a big block chevy in a fourth gen........

Was your 2002 a V6 or LS1 car? If it's a V8, then you won't have much trouble finding someone with an LT1 wanting to swap k-members, steering racks, and intermediate steering shafts. Alot of people doing LT1 to LSx swaps right now.

See....if you were in GA I would be glad to swap a K-member, mounts, & steering shaft from an LT1 car for LS1 parts because I will probably be doing an LS1 swap in the near future and also don't want to buy a tubular k-member.

I think I am approaching the bonnet and cone filter setup, seems to be the best route IMO

Possibly, I have seen 3", 4" and 5" breathers so I am sure you can make it happen. All depends on your intake, I am debating on using a high rise or low rise intake, whatever makes out better torque I will be using.

I'm just gonna use a low rise. They usually make more power at the bottom end where a high rise is more top end, plus you dont have to cut as much to get it to fit.

This thread will work for a sbc as well? Or is this write for a BBC only. I been looking for hours on something like this but for a sbc. I have a 95 camaro with a 3.4 and I want to put a 350 sbc in it. If anyone can show me to a sticky that would be great like I said I been looking for hours now
