    LT1 SWAP IN AN 83 CUTLASS

    Do you need the wiring diagrams for the LT1? If so PM me your fax # and I'll send them to you. I would keep the entire power train i.e. the 4L60E trans but if the 4L60 (700R4) you have is built then I can understand why you would keep it. I would first mark everything while removing it from the...

    just keep the under hood electrical center that was in he Caprice . You'll need that for the injectors/and PCM key on voltage. All I did was remove all the other maxi fuses I didnot need and mounted it to the rt innfer fender. You'll have to figure out the rt engine mount location on the frame...

    Please help me out,86 regal failed Smog,Pic of results!

    smog 86LL, The carb does in fact need an overhaul!!!! Judging from from the gunky build up around the top section. The black sticky stuff is not helping you. I think maybe just cleaning it off may make it run a little better! 2 or three cans of carb clean should do the trick. Spray the cleaner...

    Chevelle Console in a g-body

    SS console You should do a T56 six speed. I would think that the floor would be similar for the console to mount up . My friend has a 70 SS 454 and the console hole would be in the wrong place to a top loader trans shifter the hole is kinda off to the side for the m22. They make a kit for...
