Thanks for all the compliments. The kick down cable is from Lokar and I made the bracket for it to fit with the fuel rail covers. The air bellow is from SLP and I had to cut it to fit my application. It was made for a C5 Vette.

How much did the swap end up costing at the end?
Is it smog legal?

The swap cost about $5500 or so not including any other modifications to the car or engine. It is not smog legal.

As far as emissions, You need to do the sniffer test with the pre 96 car. The ls1 should be a cleaner runnnig engine than the TPI that was in it, so you should have no problems?

I do not have cats on the car and I took off everything that had to do with emissions. I have collectors plates on the car so I do not need to get any kind of emissions test on the car. No cats makes it sound so much better!
