I just pulled out my LT1 in the car and it ran good at the track.
1.6 60'
7.4 1/8 @91mph
11.81@114mph
This was last time at the track with the LT1
I hope the LS1 will do better than the LT1.

The Air Intake Temp Sensor is mounted on the underside of the intake tube-before the Masair.

Vents, the quick connect fuel fitting is off of a 92-96 Corvette LT1. I Like the look of the factory gm look.

I live in San Jose,CA. Are you in San Jose as well? Although I'm putting my LS1 into a Chevelle, I've always loved the old "Z's". At one time I had a 280Z and would love to see your car some weekend when you have time.

Fastlane68, I live in Concord. I go out to the track about once a month so you may se me there. You can look at it anytime, do you have your Chevelle swap done?

Black z --Wiring can be done using a factory service manuel or you can order it from a shop. Im not sure who will make one but I think Spertech does.
