I have a 1995 Firebird that had a 3.4 v-6. we have converted it to a 2000 Ram Air LS1. It wasn't a very easy task. Just had a cam installed and dyno tuned at 380/382 at the wheels. Wanted more but ok for now. I can't seem to keep the rearend and tranny together. Broke last night at the track. Did a 1.509 60ft, at a 6.879et at 104.2mph on a 100 shoot of n20, MT ET Street Radials Stock 10 bolt and stock tranny with a 3800 stall.

 

I installed a 98 TA LS1 into my 74 Vette with a t56 tranny and I just finished the project. I started the project my senior year in high school in 2000. Man the wait was worth it. I will admit that at the time I was WAY over my head. I love the mileage that thing gets over the old L82 motor that was in it.

 

Sounds like a SWEEEEEEEEET ride dude. Just watch out for the Vette purists (not here, but in real life) cuz they will have a cow when they see/hear about that. Congrats on getting the project done though.

 

1967 el camino with global west front suspension.
Bought a totaled 1998 z-28 w/6 speed, and grafted in the firewall and trans. tunnel so I could use the console, dash board, pedals, a/c etc. I have also used the gas tank, and all the stock pulleys and brackets. I moved the engine to the rear, and was able to use the stock oil pan too. It has required frame modifications to clear a/c compressor and oil pan. It has been a giant pain in the ***. But what do you do when you've put so much time into it.
I started the project in the spring of 2002.

The worst thing about it is that when I am all done, I will be the proud(?) owner of an el camino the very few people will like.

I plan on auto cross racing it when I am done, and using it as my daily driver.

great fourm

6 years into project. Have not made time or had extra money to finish.
I hope to renew the plates next month and drive it some while I start on the body work crap.

I have been dreaming of a next project with installing the lsx into BMW 3 series or ??

Cool to see all the LS1 conversions out there. I had no idea there were so many

I have been working on a Ferrar F-150 kit car for a little while now. No where near complete, but the process is fun. The kit had the Datsun 6 and 5sp and it is being replaced with a 98 LS1/T56. LONG way off, but like I said it is fun so far!
