Swap in progress: Fully restored 1977 Camaro Type LT with Vortec 4.8 and 4L80-E trans. Looking for mild performance and decent mileage.

Motor and trans came out of a van with 2 miles on it!

 

68 Camaro getting LSX and 6L90E 6 speed auto trans. Objective: something between a stock looking cruiser and a Pro Tourer with a high tech powertrain.

Car is a Merkur XR4Ti with a ford 2.3 turbo. But tired a dealing with smog issues. (I am looking to play with them at their game)Car is currently in Fl. but I am bringing it back to Ca. in 4 months, so it time for another smog legal Ca. swap to hit the roads.

I am going to be swapping in a LS1 00-02 or 04-05 with AFR 205 heads and some custom cam to start with along with LS1 edit mated to a 4l65E to start. I just want to get past the Ca smog Ref first.

looking to match the performance of my current combo. so I will be looking for at least 400 rwhp on Ca pump gas with LS1 motor

My car currently has a 8.8 ford cobra IRS modified to fit in my subframe. So I dont have that weak of a rear other than the CV axles now.

And hey, if things work out well with the swap. I already have a intercooler for it, if I want to Blow on it a little(FI)

70' Nova - Currently has an 11.5:1 383ci with a 200shot of nitrous. Best run to date is 10.034 with the old set up. I love the 383ci, but with 100oct at $6.98/gal, I want something just as fast, but better on gas.

I'm working on a fully-forged LQ4 with a T4 S400-74 turbo. I'm looking for mid-to-high 9's this year.

- 1/4 mile = 12.5 @ 115 mph; 60 ft = 2.1

 

I've started a thread about my swap on TGO, there are roughly a half-dozen pictures up so far.

The vehicle receiving the swap is my low-mileage 1989 Trans Am GTA (link points to an older page with most of my mods listed...). Up until now, it had received most of the suspension mods that are available (incl. good tires), & I'd strengthened the rear a little bit, but the engine only had bolt-ons. And considering how "less than pleased" I was with the "tuneability" of the stock ECM, the new drivetrain became a no-brainer.

The drivetrain going in actually IS slightly different than the "normal" LS1 swap - I'm buying one of the new/zero-mile 6.2L aluminum VVT-equipped L92 engines, which will be paired up with a newly-freshened T-56 by Six Speeds, Inc.

I'll be spending a little bit of time breaking the new engine & clutch in, but once that's done, I'm planning on finding out what it'll do at the track!

Wish me luck...

 

need info on 6.0l swap headers?

 

Hi , here is my 63 Biscayne 4dr , LS2 ,4l65e almost done,

 

I'm just getting started swapping the LS1 and T56 from a '99 Trans Am into my '71 Chevelle (originally a 350 / TH350 car). I picked up the Trans Am as a complete wrecked donor car, so I'm hoping to make use of quite a few components.

Here's a pic of the Chevelle:

Here's a link to the build thread:

Awesome car! I love to see Original/Off Breed swaps!

 

Update: The 5.3 was nice, but I had a better idea: 427ci LSX block with L92 heads. The 12 bolt was replaced with a 9" from that other manufacturer. The '32 should be able to keep up with traffic now. Btw, the 5.3 is going into a '65 Olds Vista Cruiser. Ha!
