WOuld this be at all possible

Well I know 4th gen interiors will fit, so skip that question, here is the plan. I want to put a Trans Am 4th gen interior in my IROC-Z, and I want to use the 4th gen gauges, now if I could get my hands on an LT1 and its tranny and put it in there, along with the 4gen dahs and gauges and I'd be using its computer, wouldn't I be able to use the 4gen gauges too????

Its out there I know, but just maybe.... gotta get more cash first.

If you replace everything I do not know why not...

the wires and such do not know the difference whether there in a 4th gen or your third gen...

If you use everything 4th gen...I would say its possible...

Anything is possible with the proper motivation, time, and money. As long as you've got a daily driver to use while doing something of this magnitude, go for it. It'd be easier if you had a complete donor car that you could compare step by step as you do the swap, but... Man, that sounds like a helluvan ordeal; but that's just me.

Go for it,

Steve

Actually it might be pretty straight forward, but you will need an entire car...

That might be a three month project to get it all right...
