Default Ls7 in f body
I am thinking about this in my 2000 z28 and do I need to convert to the ls2 parts like the front cover and censors or is it possible to do with all the ls1 stuff and what all do I need to convert if I have to?

Thanks...

the thing that you need is the ls2 conversion kit it comes compete with everything that you need.

Depends on also if you want to run it as a Dry Sump or a Wet Sump setup..

I was looking into a LS7 for my Car at one point, it wasn't hard to make it a standard Wet Sump.

The only thing that you can used from the ls1 is the knock sensors and the oil pressure sensor. You have to used the ls2 conversion kit in order for the ls7 to work in the camaro.
