My LS1 Front End Conversion (Camaro) PICS!
I finally did the LS1 front end conversion on my 94 Camaro after debating about it the past few years. Sold my LT1 front end to fund the new front clip and along the way added SS wheels and LS1 SS rear spoiler. What do you guys think?
Before I started the LS1 conversion...
Added SS wheels in place of the Weld ProStars and swapped my blacked out lenses for stock ones...
Aquiring the parts...took these in on trade for a TH350 trans I wasnt using...the headlights have the Whistler mod done to them already but may redo it in a gloss black vs the flat black...
Also picked up a stock taillight panel since my old was was smoothed and had a battery shut off switch hole from when it was a drag car. Going to buy the stainless "CAMARO" letters on it and paint it like the Dale Sr SS Camaro. Think that should look nice...
Old front clip is off, new front end going on...
LS1 Front Clip loosly bolted on...btw...for anyone who does this, you will need LS1 hood hidges as well, LT1's look the same but the holes are drilled different...
Rear taillight panel installed...
Ended up selling my LT1 front end to a friend and bought a GM SS hood with the money, the rest I spent going to the LTx Shootout...
And I picked up a SS spoiler as well...
And depending on my friend's schedule, I should have the Camaro painted in the next week or two. Picked up from another friend who works in a decal shop, a silver hockey stripe kit that I will put on after its painted with "LT1" written in the blank space on the fender.

Thanks guys! As far as the stripes, I have the silver ones already so Ill see how they look. If they look Ill take them off and probably do something different.
