Default THANKS everyone

Hello all, I just wanted to say thanks for all the good information. I started lurking here last year when I started my swap and I can say that there is no way I could have done it without the information that I found here. So, thanks again

My swap is 99.5% done, I finally drove it and I absoloutley love it!!! I just have a few small details to work out like bunch of bulbs out, no reverse lights, hood is out to paint. After those it will be ready for PA inspection then hopefully lots of miles over the rest of summer.

The car is an 89 Camaro RS. 2000 LS1/T56 from Camaro SS, Hawks motor and trans mounts,2002 plastic tank with Racetronix PNP fuel system, Hawks longtubes and ORY pipe, MAC catback, PCM done by PCM 4 Less, No cats EGR or AIR, all autometer ultra lite gauges, Lakewood LCA's , Richmond 3.73s.



Well, thanks again and if I can be of any help to you just let me know.

Okay, here are a few pics. The car is filthy and the wiring and plumbing needs cleaned up a bit but you get the point. There are a few of the clutch pedal mods, air intake, and filter/tee assembly here because I am getting pm's for pictures of them. Enjoy!!

Very nice.

Did you make the intake off of one of the bend suppliers or buy it from a kit?

Very nice job. Those Ten Spokes look right at home on that car.

I bought a universal 3.5" inlet K&N, and some rubber elbows all from Ebay for less than $50. I used 3.5" exhaust pipe for the rest. I welded a small piece of ridgid conduit to the pipe for the IAT sensor. I also welded a piece of 1" flat to the pipe to mount on the fenderwell. The mount is a rubber bushing from lowes to allow movement.
