1st I can help on spelling HELP....

But search on G-Body threads, there are a few sponsor vendors (and a few that are not) that can help with Kit and direction.

But Reseaching the build threads are your best friends. Then ask specific questions, we old timers hate re-writing the book over and over again on these threads.. Read the FQA/Sticklies...

aftermarket wiring would be easier, but more expensive. as far as a diagram they send you one with the wiring harness, or if you use stock stuff use a chiltons manual. dont start cutting anything untill you know what it goes to its a pain in the *** repairing hacked up harnesses.

Brad,

Definitely read first. As the other gentlemen have said, the stickies above are a good place to start. Get as many viewpoints as you can before altering any parts/wires on the existing Camaro.
I can tell you from experience that even after reading many threads, that miswording and a lack of proper grammar (not on my part) set me off in the wrong direction. If I had taken the time to verify what I thought I had understood from a thread, time and money would have been saved.
