Ok im probably going to get a Camaro 90- 92 pretty soon as my first car. First off can i use the old trans from the 305 with with a lt1 or do i need to get a new one along with the engine. And do any of you guys know about any shops in sothern california that does engine swaps like this and that can give me a quote.

Thanks Cameron

 

Dang i guess no one can help me on this one

 

You can use the trans but if its an automatic you will have to use a 93 style throttle body so you can hook up the TV cable.

 

I kinda see what i have 2 do i know i need the computer and wrirng harnes and all that stuff any other tips anyone wants to give me??

 

why can't you use the the 93 style tv cable on the lt1 tb? lots cheaper

 

LOL good point. Why not??

 

Do the swap yourself. From what I understand, once you get all the parts there's nothing really "custom" you have to do. That'll save you a lot of money. Good luck!

Yea thats whta im probably going to do just envite some nighbores and buy oder some pizza and drinks and get to work

 

Please don't take offense, but the type of information you need can't be answered in a few quick sentences. Therefore since you don't even own the car yet most guys here aren't going to take the time to write a novel on how to do the swap. Go buy the car, get your finances together, and when you are ready start asking some more specific questions after you've read all the archived posts. I've found over the years that the guys here are very willing to help, assuming you've done your leg work and are ready to go.

 

Im getting the car in a week the guy has to put on the new tires on it. But i get what your saying. I was just cruseing the forum and noticed that no one rplied to my message. Sorry for my incorect writing too.
