Default Engine swap

Is it possible to put a lt1 or lt4 complete motor in a 1990 coupe? I have a 6speed, both engines i found are auto's, will they mate up? I want to keep the 6speed.

Why would you want to?

It'll be so much cheaper to redo yours! :thumbs:

Yes the LT1 or LT4 will fit the bolt patern for the trany and motor mounts are the same as any std. SBC. The wiring is the PIA.
