LS1 Install - Chicago area I'm looking for someone that runs a shop out of their garage or someone in the Chicago area that can do an LS1 install into a 2nd gen 78 Camaro. It's a 2004 GTO LS1 with 4L60E replacing a Gen I 350 / 700R4. So the driveshaft + crossmember are done already.
I have 2 guys locally, but I'm trying to find more resources. www.ls1speed.com can't give me a legitimate estimate, they want an open ticket to do the work which I just won't do. I refuse to do that when I know they have done one of these before.
What I need done.
1. Motor mounts installed
2. Motor installed with trans
3. ECU + Harness reworked (I will be sending it to Speartech most likely)
4. Headers connected + exhaust hooked up. (haven't figured out which to buy yet)
5. Fuel system ran + tank modified.
I have the money to pay for all of this but I'm not paying a shop $4,000 to do this install. Any takers??
