Check out that link Stealth gave you. That covers the intake. As for the heads: The LT1 is reverse cooled so some of the coolant passages need to be blocked off. Check out this link, that guy really knows what he's doing though.

thanks a lot guys,I might just keep looking for a full LT1,or LS1 motor.

 

If you have the money, go LS1 To be honest, I sometimes regret not waiting on the T56 and buying an LS1/6spd combo. And I can't upgrade to an LS1 now, the trannies are different.

Oh well.

Go for it! An intake swap is much easier and cheaper than an engine swap. As a plus, while your working on the intake you can still drive your car. The intire swap can be done for under $300 but even with the John milicans fuel lines and dist. spacer you can do it for around $450.

 

anybody know the price differences between an LS1wT56 and an Ls1 wT56.?I know a buddy that wouldnt mind helping me take one out of a junkyard,If we pull it,how much on average would it run me?

 

i suppose you mean : ls1 with t56 OR ls1 without t56? if thats the case, figure around 1500$ or so. hth

 

Figure for around $2500 you could get an LS1/T56 combo.

1500 - motor
1000 - T56

Then probably $1k for all the little pieces/conversion pieces.

I've always wondered if the LT1 intake would bolt up on the 305 TPI motor? I dont see why it wouldnt. What kind of increase would I be looking at?

 

It will, with the same mods needed for a 350. I don't know how much you'd gain though.

 

Do you think it would be worth it?

 

Heavens yes. I saw a SBC LT1 intake for sale for $250 in the Classifieds just last week. The guy might still have it.

If I didn't need to pass a visual emissions inspection, I assure you that intake would be atop my new motor. It's the cheapest aftermarket intake out there. Power up to 6k, port it and raise that numer. Looks cool. Dang, I just wish I could do it!

Now this is all if you're on a budget. Of course if you have the money there are better intakes but for $2-300, you absolutely cannot beat this!

www.ThirdGenResource.com -- They sell a conversion kit with the motor mounts/headers/k-member. For the engine/tranny just try to find a donor car.
