Pro touring 1967 Nova SS LS3 416 build I haven't posted much, but I have done a lot of research on here and I give thanks to this site for having the information I needed to feel confident upon doing an LS swap in my car. To pay back, I'm sharing my progress on my swap with lots of pics.
I decided to do a mild build with my car, but try and keep it simple. I recently installed a new front clip before doing my swap. Here's the info on it all...
