LS1 swap into 1986 El Camino - Thank you I just wanted to say thank you to everyone that posted to my thread and answered all my questions. Your help was greatly appreciated. I want to personnally thank the following people:
John Bzdel - For answering my questions from the start and for the motor mounts and modified oil pan. The mounts and oil pan made this swap almost a plug-in-play, along with a G-Force transmission crossmember for G-Bodys and for the 4l60e.
John at SpearTech - I got the motor, transmission, PCM, Corvette Drive-By-Wire, and custom harness all from John. John started the motor up on the crate when I went to pick it up so I knew it would run when I got it in the car. John answered my questions and corrected me when I was mistaken. He made a custom harness to my specified length so I could mount the computer in the passenger kick panel just like the factory computer. His support was awesome! I would highly recommend SpearTech to anyone.
There are others that gave me answers to my questions and I can't name them all but they are all listed in the thread. I thank everyone for their help.
Gbody installed a truck LS1 and customized his harness himself and did it in record time. By far a harder install than mine. It was nice to have someone else with an El Camino doing an install at the same time.
I will add my support to others on this forum and answer any questions about my install.
Again THANK YOU GUYS.
