...this has probably been asked before so I'm sorry if it has. I have a 95 Z28 (obviously) and I am wanting to put a LS1 in it.... what all would that involve? Thanks.

magnus has everything on his website. im not sure what the website is though.
we just did a 97 V6 car...put an ls1 in it.
roughly need:
engine
tranny
engine harness
underhood harness
interrior harness...(basically every wire harness on the car)
ls1 fueltank (senders are different between years everything we used wasoff a 99)
LS1 fuel lines
gauge cluster
k-member
LS1 steering rack (they are different)


if you have a doner car it is a relativley simple swap. trying to mix match harnesses is kind of a pain. We had a wrecked 99 formula. swap probably took a week to do (only few hours a night). without it and it being complete, It would have been alot harder.

Cool, thanks for the help. That web site would be nice though. Maybe I should try a search on google or something. But anyway, thanks again.
