Hey has anyone ever thought of attempting to have a awd car with an ls motor. I know they have been done before, but not a lot of info is provide for them. Would it be worth swapping the motor into a awd car, or converting a car to awd using a Borg Warner type kit or something similar. Obviously this would have tons of fan work but that is half the fun. Any feedback would be appreciated.

This is something i still plan on doing in my Nova, Looking at using the Transfercase, oil pan and front diff from a trailblazer SS.

Converted the car from RWD to AWD using trailblazer pieces..

Interesting. Has anybody ever tried this in a newer car like a c5 corvette? Or a GTO? I am assuming swapping an ls motor into an audi or a subaru would be nigh of impossible without have bill gates bank account.

I've been trying to figure out the best way to create a lightweight AWD LSX powered machine for a while.

I saw the chevy LUV on here and thought that might be a fit

A jeep is probably the best answer right now, but whats the point of having all that power, if you're just going to flip the thing at the slightest bend in the road.

Hey Guys
I am based in South Africa and I am busy with a AWD 67 Camaro
Got my hand on a RS6 which has same wheelbase and track width as 67 Camaro
Also going to be running the V10 and tiptronic motor

Will the engine fit in front of the axle line on a camaro?

Yes just slightly
Least there is enough space in front will post pics as soon as I have her on the chassis table for mockup
Will also be running a full frames that the front and rear suspension cradles will connect to
