A friend of mine has a 91Z28 350TPI he's converting over to an LS1/T56 and is making me a hell of a deal on the entire radiator to tailshaft including wiring/accessories/everything setup. He's also including his stock front springs.

My question is...should I really run into too many problems? I'll have both cars side by side, and basically it'll be a pull out/change timing chain/put back in operation. Anything I should look out for?

 

Umm yeah.. a lot actually. You'll need his radiator and you will need a SD TPI harness to swap over in your car. I'm not sure if his harness will plug into your car directly. I think it should though. You will also need to use his ECM. You'll run into a lot of little "issues" that can be fixed on the spot but probably won't be expected. Nothing major though like the harness. Maybe you just carburate it and go even faster ? hehe

 

what do you have now? v8? do you have eletric or nechanical speedo? if so the the l98 will be a pretty direct swap, since you can get all the parts and harness directly off the donor car and everything you'll need he won't it should be pretty easy as fas a swap like that goes.

 

I get his radiator, wiring harness, ECM, everything.




Thanks EDE, that's what I thought. Will my transmission cross member work? If I recall, it should....since both transmissions are 700R4's. My speedo is electric, as should his be.

BTW, one more question. Since his ECM is from a Camaro, will it work on a Firebird?

Oh, and EDE, right now it's a 3.1 Firebird....92

 

TTT

 

HMmm...and since his ECM has a different VATS value, will I need the resistor out of his key?
