Would I have to make any changes to make a LS1 fit into my 97Z28? Would it drop in pretty smoothly and would an aftermarket header and exhuast combo match up?

 

It should bolt right up to the motor mounts...

but i've read where you need a 98-99 LS1 because of some electrical hookups. LS1 radiator, fans, and prolly alot of other stuff that i forgot.

also, why the swap? did the LT1 crapout or did you get a good deal on an LS1 somewhere? Cause why spend 4-5k just to be as fast as every other Camaro/TA? Mod the hell out of that LT1 man.

 

mechaniclly, you need LS1 k member, LS1 trans, LS1 radiator, aftermarket hood

 

^^see i told you there was a whole lot of stuff that i forgot

 

LS1 Trans? The Tranny won't bolt up to it? Isn't it a T56?

 

same tranny..diff. bellhousing

 

Its a lot cheaper to mod your LT1 than it is to install an LS1 in place of it... and it will most likely be a lot faster too.

 

also I heard about something with the fuel lines or something...i forgot though...
