First off - try hitting your CAPS LOCK key - (Its internet ettiquite that basically says you are YELLING!)

But - to answer your question, there is an 84 on here, that the person has yanked it out, put in a LS1, and installed stock Z06 wheels. It looks VERY sharp. I cannot for the life of me remember his name right now, but he's on here quite a bit. He should hop on here and post his name sometime. Hang tight!
:cheers:

That would be one of my partners....Trace Torrence (LS1C4, TracerX)....the car is a driver and he can point you in the right direction on the swap.

You will need to fab up motor mount brackets, notch the top rear of crossmember for clearance, modify thermo housing, move a/c and alternator to top positions custom fuel rail with return line, swap valve covers, custom pulleys and brackets. I would use the F-body motor as you will need throttlebosdy that accepts a cable , oil pan and f-bod manifolds or shorties.

E-mail me with any specifics that you need and I will let you know what you can expect.

Good Luck
