LS1 Rearend
Here is the Sceniro....I have a V6 Camaro that I swapped an LS1 into. At the shop that did the swap they only had LT1 rearends without traction control. so that is what they put into the car. My E-Brake didn't work too well so I thought that I had LS1 brake cables and they were different lengths and they adjust differently. So I didn't think I could tighten it up. I just had a Rear Caliper go out and was thinking of upgrading to an LS1 rearend that I could build up while it was out of the car and have no down time on the car. New caliper from the factory is $270. So a rearend wouldn't be that much higher. I talked to the shop today and he said that I have LT1 e-brake cables and that I should just replace the caliper with one from autozone. theirs are $50. I think this will be the way I am going. But I still might pick up a rearend and build it up but the deal would have to be right.
