I have a 1966 GTO and I swapped in a LS2 & T56 out of a 2006 GTO, I was able to use the stock 2006 GTO lower hose after trimming the length it is a Gates part # 23185 and for the top hose I used a Dayco #71562 both seem to work and look well, I also have a AFCO LS swap radiator where both the inlet and outlet are on the passenger side.

 

john i just took a wire coat hanger and shaped it up went to an old school parts house and he found it in about a 1/2 hr they just had a lot of old stock to work with there just wasnt a part # on it.

 

it starts with the key now i have been hooking the wires to the batt to start it also have tail light head light and ex. hope to finish up wiring this weekend.

 

Niiiiice!!!! Thanks for more inspiration...Your Chevelle sounds awesome.

 

Congrats on the startup , so I'll see you on the power tour this year ?

 

I am lad to see you got it running. Hopefully i wont be far behind you. I also have a lot of wiring to do.

 

I see wires in my sleep.

 

thanks now its time to get ready to take it up the road.

 

picked up almost all the chrome, bumpers, and grills today.also got windshield hope to have it all on by this weekend.

 

Wow Kevin you move fast

 

Thats what my wife tells me.

 

haha^^^ nice car bro

 

kevin dakota dash looks good i have it in a 53ford pickup with a 350 and 700r4about the same color that was already done ,i was wondering with this swap can you still use factory guages or since eveyone is replacing them would i be out of luck

 

no you have to change guages and the best way i found was dakota.

 

hope to work out a few more wiring isues and take it for a test drive this next weekend all crome is back on and carpet is in i just need to find out were the pinout is to hook up temp gauge.
