mat89Rs I hope you got my message on ur question about Speed Den or MAF. I am new here to this forum and to the world of Chevy's. I got a great deal on a 1994 Z28 just this last weekend so I will be asking alot of questions about how to squeez more out of my Lt1 on the cheep for now. I was a die hard ford fan all my life. I still own a very rare 1994 Ford Mustang GT R Code Steeda Edition. Fast but I have always loved them F Bodys. Jamie55
Had you looked at the date of the thread, it was over 5 years ago when he put up that post.

hey guys i got a 94 LT1 and I'm looking to drop it in my 91 3.1 Firebird I'm wondering would it bolt right up to the stock mounts or is their modification needed for the extra 2 cylinders? Do i need a new k-member i know i need stronger struts and shocks. the engine is out of a Impala SS. I just wanna get it in there without much frustration and confusion. i got lost with the resistance and the VAT and MAF please someone help my parents don't even know i got this engine lol I'm only 17 and I've done engine swaps before but i never put in a bigger engine before i only swapped out for the same motor

My ride is one of a kind and will always be one of a kind
I have a 1990 Camaro RS with the dog 305 TBI with 237,8xx original miles on the engine and I'm going to be looking to drop an LT1 from a non-Police Chevy Caprice in my 3rd gen Camaro. So, obviously I have some questions/points for the knowledgable here.
I understand that the LT1 will directly work with the stock engine mounts.
Will the auto tranny from the Caprice fit my Camaro? Or do I need to grab a 4L60E from a 4th gen F-body--and will that fit.
Someone told me about the "reverse cooling" on the LT1 that needs to be re-engineered--anybody know of any guides how to do this?
I'm planning a custom dash+console with a completely custom instrument cluster--so that means I won't be using my stock instrument cluster from my Camaro. Is this a problem--or will that just make it easier in terms of the wiring.
Will I have to relocate the A/C compressor--or can I just add a "delete" pully?
What else will I have to relocate/fabricate/re-engineer on the LT1 for my 3rd gen?
Thanks in advance for any assistance on my project.
first time ever posting on here not sure were to start or look, but i'm looking to buy a 1996 or 1998 firebird formula with an lt1 to swap out the tranny and lt1 into my 1990 firebird, i was wondering if it would fit without any fabrications needed, or what i would have to do to get them to fit? I won't be doing it myself i was just wondering if it would all fit ok or if i should go another direction, and also how hard and much would it cost to go from my auto trans to possibly a 5 or 6 speed trans?
