This is a stupid question. Had you used the search button you would have had an answer right away. Instead you start a post that pushes down worth while posts. And to answer your question, yes you can...but its not worth it because you have to redo the fron end of the car.

Chill Out!!

Everybody, whether at a new job or school, is a "New Guy", at one time or another. Not a good feeling, especially if the first person who responds to you is an "A-Hole".

Peace!!

Anythings possible with a little cash. but in the end it might not really be worth it. the money you spend getting the ls1 in your 93, you could easily mod your lt1. It crossed my mind too but the few grand it would cost to get a stock ls1, i could do a nice set of heads a cam and make more power then a stock ls1. But of course i have no money anyways, so that didnt happen either.

LT1

dont waste your money on an ls1. Get heads/ cam and some other bolt-ons and smoke those ls1's.

I love LT1's btw

LS1

I agree. It's money probably better spent on some mods and, you might surprise yourself if you focus on your stock engine.

Good luck!!

Read my post. Want it clarified? USE THE SEARCH. This has been discussed MANY times. There is not enough hood clearence, so you have to put a 98'+ front end(hood, bumper cover, fenders) on. I just did a search and found alot about. Its the red button in the upper right hand corner. It even says "search" in white text.
Your question was answered in the first post. Your second question would have been answered had you done what I suggest in the first.

You dont have to put a WHOLE front end on. But you do have to do many major parts. Like modify the front suspension.

WTF?

I don't know what's worse. Him not doing a search and wasting thread space, or you talking **** and wasting thread space. I think it's you. You could've been polite about it, but you're just bein' an ***. As mentioned above, take some paxil and chill the f*ck out.
