Re: LS1 stroker in a C3vette.. Well, I'll let you know....
I've got a '71 convertable that I tore apart 10 years ago. Just bought a 2000 LS1/T56 to stick into it.
Bought the Street and Performance motor mount plates. Does anyone know about transmission mounts/crossmember? I am picking up the engine on Saturday, so I'll know more soon. Next will be transmission mount then shifter position vs/ interior. These are my first two worries.
Next will probably be the engine wiring harness/ computer, Fans, clutch... too much to think of....
one step at a time.
