Default LT1 into a Fox body, anyone done it?

Hard to find any info on this. I need a wiring harness to support a 4L60E and factory ecm.

I haven't done it, nor do I have plans to do it, but an LT1 bolts in place of a SBC and SBC swaps have been done quite a few times. the wiring harness is just a matter of finding someone that has one.

Default fox swap

i put a ls1 into a 89 coupe, i used a qa1 k member and fabed my own mounts that go to the k member, i modified the original double hump trans mount, did not have to do anything to the drive shaft other than change the yoke to fit the 4l60e, the onky thing that i am trying to get now is some long tube headers that can fit., i used a factory harness with a 99 comp that was for a 4l60e and sent it to speartech and they fixed it up for me. If you have any Q's ask away.
