Default Need help finding a crankshaft sensor.

I've been looking all over the internet and local shops, but I can't seem to find a replacement crankshaft sensor for my 1997 z28. I currently have a 95 lt1 in my car, and I could really use some help finding this sensor. Does anybody know where I can get one?

Have you check with NAPA or O'Reilly for the part. Most part stores should be able to get it.

You say you have a 95 LT1 in your car now. I guess you swapped the timing cover from the 97 and are still using the OBD-II computer?

The Autozone website lists it.

No. Crank shaft sensors were not used on f-bodys until OBDII came out in 1996.
