Default I'm back with a ls1 sorta..

well after selling my formula, and buying the 69 camaro, I've decided that this winter I will tackle the ls1 swap.

I picked up a short block, and I'm not starting to piece together the parts to get it up and running.

I think I got the top end pretty much lined up, minus a few things but hope to get car, torn down and back running by feb..

I'm looking for some parts if anyone here has anything please let me know.


low mile set of lifters with bolts and trays
power stterig pump and braket, has to be for f-body
ls1 6 speed bellhousing
victor jr efi carb intake
crank pulley underdrive
need a set good valve springs, 918 or better.. low miles please
ls7 clutch and flywheel.


Old pic, brakes have been done, and interior has been redone.

I'm putting heads and cam in with this one.. My ls6 clutch that I had before didn't hold up with bolt ons and a good tire..

Then again, I'm not drag racing this, and not running a sticky tire..

Hell if its a good price.. let me know.

My goal is to make it stop,handle and move like my formula! Brakes are done, suspension is coming along.. motor,, well, we will see.
