Default Making the jump

I am doing an LT1 swap into my v6 car.
Should be a fun project.
For now I will just be concerned with getting it in there.
I will start modding it later.

It is a donor car for the white one in my sig =)
It "was" a 1995 z28.
Really clean car until some one decided to pull out in front of an f-250

What year is the donor car?

Just a tip, if you get same year LT1 PCM, engine harness and instrument panel (gauges) as your 96 Camaro it will make life easier.
