Talking new guy here!

Hey guys! Checking out this site has proved to be very interesting. I have started a project building a nice cruiser out of a 1967 camaro hard top and I no matter what am putting an LS1 in this car. But like anything I'm on a budget. I've been doing alot of research on this driveline and get many different opinions on how to go about doing this engine installation cost effectively. Anyone with a suggestion or 2 would be great. I am a technician for a Saturn dealer by the way of 7yrs. so If anyone has a questions on anything don't hesitate to ask. Thanks in advance!

One of the owners of this board did an LS1 swap on his first gen camaro, too.

Check out his web page. http://users.ev1.net/~ynot_dv8/69Cam.../sponsors.html

Sweet! My dad has a 67 Camaro, and I've envied it since age 9. Good luck on the build-up!

Welcome to the board, man. You'll get some great info/help here. See if you can PM Wings. I gave him my old coolant lines from my LS1 intake. He was building the same setup > LS1 in a '67 camaro.
