V6 to LT1 V8 conversion..?
anybody have info on doing this..?
wanna put an LT1 in a 94-97 v6 car..and I don't wanna reinvent the wheel on this..LOL
I have a 'slightly' wrecked 94 T/A..but it's expensive to get frame work and
all done..
I wanted to get a roller or high mileage LT1 car and put my motor and trans in it..
but everyone thinks their 100,000+ mile beat to crap car is worth
$10,000
so, I'm lookin' to do a v6 car..which can usually be picked up for cheap..
Thanks Ahead for any info!

D@mn Matt..... haven't seen you here for at least 2 years. Welcome back.
There's a thread "stickied" to the top of the V6 Tech forum covering V6-->??? engine swaps.

I'll move your post to that forum.

Im doing a swap in my 1996 3.8 Camaro. Im dropping in a 96 LT1. Ive found that sticking with the same year really really helps and makes things a Million times smoother. Find a car thats the same year as yours and it should go pretty smooth. I have a daily driver 3.4 car and it would have been a hell of a lot easier to put the LT1 in there rather than in my 3.8. But my 3.8 had a blown engine so thats the car I did the swap in. Let me know if you have questions. Im almost done with mine.

Yo KEv..!
nope the red 97 T/A is 'not' wrecked..it's unstreetable though..
shoe horning a 525 BBC into it first of March..Glide with a Gear Vendor..
Dana S60 with 5.13's..
got a 94 T/A that's lightly hit..but got into the innerfender support and
the radiator support..moved the pass side subframe over and down an inch..
apparently it's a Zillion #@ bucks to fix it on a frame rack..
I've got a fresh cammed-up LT1 and fresh beefed 4L60E and 12-bolt
to go in something..need a fast ride for the Power Tour..ya Know..?!..LOL..
so I'm shopping for a roller..or bad motor/tranny F-body car..may even do V-6
switch..
I seem to keep missing out on all the deals..regardless..with time runnin out..
so..How've you been..?!..

not only was the dash completely different and wouldn't sync, I had to have parts of my harness custom fabbed, had to change over ALL the plumbing and electrical stuff, big pain, big pain... just make sure you do a TON of homework before you spend a single penny.
