This thread may or may not help, but there are some pics showing the conversion from an LT1 to an LS1 style front end, etc. 1995 Firebird 4.8L Street/Strip Turbo Project - LS1TECH - Camaro and Firebird Forum Discussion Sorry to hear about the car being a total loss, that sucks.

 

id be all solo in a one car garage so I've been trying to figure out the best way to navigate doing that swap. I have so much to do between the swap, front brembo conversion, run the meth injection, redoing my fmic setup, interior, etc.

 

Having a one car garage makes things rough. I never considered that as you don't see houses built that way in Texas that are newer than about 1950.

 

worse...im in a apartment. So I think I'll pull the ls1 out, pull the kmember out, put that k into the roller because it's getting a 6.0, and move over the trans, cross members, etc. Piece by piece. The ls1 is going on a stand and into the tahoe in the spring once it gets dressed up some plus that'll give me time to make sure the lq doesn't blow since its my first motor I've built.

 

Went and saw the roller today after work. Buying it in the morning. It's gonna be a massive amount of work here soon. Guy pulled the usual suspects for his swap, odd being a lt1 but each their own im not complaining. Getting it for 500, black interior I was planning on buying already, straight body, new sway bars, strut tower brace and18inch c5 rims. As soon as it gets here im going to start tearing it apart, selling what I don't want and getting what's left of the interior for my wiring and sound system. Like said before I stay busy after work for my sobriety so I'll either start a new build thread or keep updating this.

 

Awesome, good luck to you! Go ahead and start a build thread, people love those.

 

only wiring left in the wrecked one is the wiring in the door panels and behind the heater box. Gonna pull the motor and trans tomorrow and then i can start the build thread.
