LS engine swap in C2
Looking for recommendations for an auto shop near St. Louis, Missouri that has already completed an LS engine swap in a C2. I would like to use the original frame and just swap the engine along with a 5 or 6 speed manual and vintage a/c. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

Can't help with a shop, but can tell you a 5 speed TKO or TKX will fit without modifications. A 6 speed will require tunnel mods from what I understand.
I put an LS3 in my '64 last year and love it! My dad and I did all the work.

I have a LS3 in my 66 with a T-56 Magnum 6 speed. The 6 speed is overkill with my 3.55 rear gears. I plan to sway to 4.10s to have a more usable 6th gear.
