this car started as a simple 94 Camaro V6, then received a 6.5L turbo diesel back in 2008, some here will remember that thread. I had so many issues with that engine I decided it would be better to just have reliable transportation. So I decide to part out the Diesel parts and put it back on the road. Naturally I chose the LS engine. The build started on January 4, 2011 and completed just the other day. All fab, wiring, everything built by me!

Any hood clearance issues with the truck accessories? I'm wanting to do the same thing with my '94 and am not finding good info on how well it fits.

yes, the truck alternator sits above the hoodline. thankfully I had the Harwood 2.5" cowl from the last build to use. stock hood won't clear.
