2nd gen T/A
2nd gen T/A Hey everybody !I am new to this site and it looks awesome!I have an 81 T/a that I am in the works of swapping interiors with an 00-02 T/A.Still buying parts of ebay.I have a question for you guys.I have beeen doing some research on swapping an lsi into my car.I have looked in the forum here and followed all the links.Looks like a lot of work but it will be worth it.Is there anybody that sells an install kit for this engine(motor mounts ,sub frame,computer) to fit in my 81 T/A?I was looking in ebay awile ago and seen a wrecker that said they sold subframes and wiring harnesses for this swap,but of course i didn't write the seller down. Any info anybody can give me would be great.Thanks alot for all your time.
I made motor mount adapters, looks like the ones from S&P. Trans crossmember is easy to make as well, then you just need to get exhaust and fuel system taken care of. Speartech can do your harness to make it run. Its not that hard, just something you have to decide you want to do or not.

I am DYING to get myself another '79-'81 TA and drop an LS2 into her & use the '80-'81 Turbo TA hood instead of the shaker hood. 
I had a '79 WS6 with the Olds 403 big block back when I was a kid......I miss my girl.
