I got until July 4 to get this thing done. Been buying parts for last 3 months. Hope I have everything.

Day 1 Tuesday

82 Z28 carbed 305 gets moved to driveway.





S and P pretty parts are test fitted.

 

Wish my ride had an outboard motor hatch...

Hope that's enough time to get it done.

Come to think of it, time's a'wastin' - what are you doing hanging around here...!???!!?

 

Man gotta sleep sometime!!!

Day 2

Removed the front end and front quarter panels and hood.

Go to linky to see day Day 2 Results
Day 3

Didn't get as far as I wanted, I was hoping to pull the tranny and or motor. DIDN't happen.

I did get all the accessories and misc. items off the motor. Friday I will be pull the motor and transmission.

No pictures of day 3 results yet.


Conversion is 02 LS6 in an 82 Z28 with S and P bling parts and head cam set up for 475 plus Flywheel horsepower.

 

Sounds like a fun project, and I can sympathize with the family returning deadline.

I put an '01 LS1 in my '82 Z28 and it's really been fun to drive. On the road courses, it's a really noticeable change in terms of handling (less weight) and corner exit speed (more torque).

 

Well, the dead line I had set came and went and still not done. I have run into tranny mounting trouble.

I have the JTR tailhousing and can't figure out how to mount it to the spohn 4l60e crossmember.

Can anyone help or/and provide pics of what they did?

Thanks.
