1972 El Camino Project What's up yall! Im new to this form but I just started a LS Swap project. I have a LS 5.3 with truck accessories and intake. Recently I purchased the Adaptor plates, Moroso mounts and Chevy muscle car oil pan and put it into my 1972 El Camino. From here I'm going to need help finishing completing the project.

Good looking: 76larkman! I got a chance to look at the A-body section and it has been informative.

goodmark has repair panels available if rust is to bad. otherwise I would just get some flat stock sheetmetal and cut/form/weld it on. steering pulley size will need to be changed to clear steering box. a Doorman 300-130 worked for me. What wiring you using, truck? if are Lt1Swap.com has info for modification.
