Doing an engine swap, need advice
Hello, I am thinking of doing a swap for my 1991 Firebird. I plan on building an LQ4 and am thinking of around 500-600 hp. I was wondering what type of suspension/chassis upgrades I will need because I don't want the frame to get damaged. I am a pre-student for auto mechanics so I have a base knowledge on how things work but not in depth knowledge on how everything hooks up, so if I could keep it simple that would be amazing.

Sub frame connectors and change out the stamped steel control arms and panhard bars at the rear. And torque arm. Google is your friend
