This was once a running LS1/4L60E swap. I picked it up as a basket case, and swapped to a T56. My intention was to have it be street legal, but track focussed. So the HVAC and dash have been deleted in favor of a more simplistic set up.
I have more pics in the LS1 C4 and main albums (after the Buick pics) of my photobucket account.
I have been very honest on the content of the car in my build thread:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/conversio...ood-times.html
The short version:
1984 Corvette - Cowl hood - from texas - clean
1998 LS1 w S&P stand alone harness (C5 accessories)
New Dewitts LS1 swap radiator
Liberty face-plated T56 6-speed (w C4 C-beam bracket)
Dana 44 IRS with aftermarket, fully adjustable Banski control arms
Laser cut aluminum dash with Auto-meter guages
New C5 front brakes, all new hub/bearings
Racetronics fuel pump - new classic industries line
New swap headers and Magnaflow mufflers
17x11 front and 17x13 3 piece wheels (made by the founders of CCW)
What still needs to be done:
-Engine mounts (included is a slick engine plate set up)
-Wiring (keep in mind the S&P LS1/T56 harness is a stand alone unit)
-Interior - no seats (have door panels and carpet, but was planning on going the stripped down style)
-Completion of fuel system (hard lines to engine)
Other bits:
New hubs all around, new rotors, new fuel pump, water pump, oil pump, hoses, etc
The only parts that needing purchase that come to mind are a battery, clutch and fuel lines, and seats (though I am sure there are other small items).
When this car is finished it will be light, and faster in every way than my Z28. And it will be MUCH easier to work on!!
I'm looking for $10k FIRM
I have much more in it. If I cannot get at least that I will keep it to finish one day. Will consider trades (turn key only).
PM me and I'll send my phone number. There is much more to this car than I have had time to type.
Thanks
