Sup guys?
Sup guys? Well im new to this site but not car. I was recenty in a wreck that broke my neck in 2 places and totaled my civic and im gettin lost wages from my insurance company until march 1st. I have a buddy on here his name is Brian(briancws6). But i just wanted to introduce myself.
Im looking into getting an LT1 camaro/firebird thats in my price range. I found one on ebay but the engine is shot but my buddy has a police interceptor LT1 that he will sell me for 400 maybe 350. here is the car is it a good deal?

Welcome. The car doesn' t look that bad, and having the extra engine parts, could be useful. As far as the 9C1 (Police Package) motor, the biggest downfall, is it falls short of the factory LT1 used in F-bodies by 20 HP, and has iron heads as opposed to aluminum. Also, make sure he has the computer and harness for it, as the F-bodies switched from OBD I to OBD II in `96. The Caprice computer may be necessary for it to run properly, unless you have a local speed shop, that can tune it. Out of curiousity......after having your broken in 2 places.....are you sure you want to be getting into this type of car? If you start modding it, it' ll be hell on your neck during shifting.

Im employed at autozone but on leave for the injury. Yeah im sure i want this lol I had an 89 mustang 5.0 but sold it and that same day i wrecked the civic. I gotta have power, every wreck ive been in was when i was driving safely lmfao the LT1 i can get comes with wiring harness, pulleys, and all that just not the tranny.
