Will i be able to keep my cruise control?

Im in the process of planing my eninge swap for this summer. I am going from:

Stock 92 RS
- 5speed
- 305 tbi
- 10 bolt rear w/ 3.23:1 gears

To:
- 6 speed trans from a 93 camaro
- custom 350 , swapped to CARBED
- beefed up 10 bolt rear w/ 3.73:1 ratio and an Auburn Posi unit.


Will i be able to keep my cruise contol w/ the carbed setup? I have everything but the engine in my possestion now, so i cant go back on anything else.

Theres no reason you physically couldnt. You would just have to rig up the vacuum lines and the cable that controlls the throttle.

the later cars arnt stand alone... its part of the ECM as i recall....




if you pulled the SES bulb and left the ECM in there, then ran the speedo output (after it goes thru a converter box) into the stock wiring, then the ECM will probly keep cruise operational.


in that case, i think the thing to do would be to keep all the wiring, and just disconnect what you arnt using.
