A new LT1 engine with the new 10L90E automatic transmission in a C6 Z06?
is it doable to install the new LT1 engine with the new GM 10L90E automatic transmission in a C6 Z06?
is there a company that can make custom wiring harness with it that I can keep the original gauges cluster?
any one tried that?

Hello,
Because the new LT1 engine will make more HP than the LS7 engine and the new LT1 engine will make higher fuel MPG because of the direct injection.
Any how, maybe to fit the new 10L90E transmission in a C6 Z06 a new bigger automatic transmission bell housing is needed and I hope the bigger bell housing can be welded in without interfering with other car's body parts like body shell.
I think the 6L80E automatic transmission ( like in the A6 C6 ) will fit in the original transmission bell housing of the C6 Z06 correctly without interfering with other's car's body parts.
Thanks for help.

Stock for stock, the LT1 does not make more power than the LS7. 460 vs 505. Attempting this swap for fuel mileage purposes is laughable. Especially in Kuwait where fuel costs are some of the lowest in the world. Also, direct injection motors have not been proven to the tests of time and seem to have issues with intake port carbon accumulation which degrades efficiency. LS motors have proven themselves capable of lasting last 300k+ under normal circumstances.
