wondering on how practical this is?

Hey everybody im pretty new to camaros. I recently had a 93 chevy silverado but it got totaled in a wreck, so i purchased a 2001 v-6 camaro. I was wondering how practical and how easy it would be to swap the v-6 for an Ls-1. Also if i did do that would there be a lot of major problems? THanks for your help

Welcome to the board!

A couple of people have done the engine swap. You can do a search for it and see what all is involved.

I'm not sure if these are all invloved, but just to give you an idea...

Motor mounts, k-member, drivetrain, fuel pump, computer, gauge cluster...

Probably more

but i want at least 150,000 miles on my car before i think of that. i had always said i would do it when i blew my motor, but 40,000 miles is not what i was intending maybe after this rebuild my car will last another 110,000 miles. 40,000 miles and 2 rebuilds
