Default B-Body swap 2


Hi again,
I have been looking on the forum and I don't see much in the way of B-Body swaps. Is this because it hasen't been done much? If I am missing it could some one direct me to the area it maybe? The only thing I have found so far was a 60 FS Chevy, but those have X frames, and don't apply much to my 66 Caprice/Impala.
Any help would be great guys, Thanks!!!
Jesse

There are a few swapper that have done or is working on the Impala swaps. Maybe one of them will chime in or just continue searching (using different words ?). If I have time, I will do a search later..

This swap has not been done much. Most people that want modern running gear in old B-Bodies choose the LT1 over the LS. However, don't let that stop you and good luck with the swap. The '65-'66 Impala/Caprice/Biscayne are some of my favorite cars.
