Default not a ls1 but engine swap into fbod.

i have a 92 firebird i just got in addition to the 98z and would like to make it a tta with the 87 gn motor. i like the way the 92 looks better than the 87 tta BUT that 305 has got to go... is this a feasible project. would i have to change mounts etc. i think it would be bad a$$ in the end.

i think you have to change a lot to go from the 60* V6 3.1/2.8 to the 90* V6. motor mounts are deffinatly diffrent

there is an article in GMHTP on a firebird with a GN swap. they said it was pretty easy but there arent any details at all.



Quick Reply: not a ls1 but engine swap into fbod.
