Default Installing 2008 trailblazer ls2 in 68 camaro

Wondering what all has to be changed or modified to put the FAST intake for car in 68 camaro. I have been told it would take fast intake, new fuel rails and a water pump for a 2010 Camaro. Anyone know for sure or if i would be better to go with intake, fuel rails and injectors from 05-06 GTO.

Look at my build thread, the link is in my signature, as I am putting a 2008 TBSS LS2/4l70e in my 69 Camaro. Before you start swapping intakes and buying other parts, what are your plans/goals for the car. You options are pretty wide open once you have plan.

Just wanting nice street car with A/C. Trailblazer intake is not very attactive. Like the fast but can't find anyone that knows exactly what it would take. What intake are you running?

I swapped out the truck intake for an ls2 intake off a gto. If you go with a fast intake you will have to convert over to drive by cable and let whoever is going to reprogram your ecm know so they can make the necessary adjustments. You will also need different fuel rails, throttle body and water pump.

Talking Swapping power plant for ls2 intake

Not sure about your under hood clearence but
I had to do a engine swap after I spun a bearing on my 98 ls1 ws6
Used a 2005 totaled trail blazer ss ls2 engine for swap; water pump
oil pump pretty much every thing is identicle between engines except in my case
I needed a conversion kit as the cam sensor is located in the front on a ls2
Used a FAST 90 mm intake with FAST throttle body (in my case throttle cable) and rather mild Comp cam with Kooks Headers got 465 RWHP on Mustang Dyno!

There is a FAST intake for truck engines, I'm sure they are made for use with truck accessories and TB.
