some lt1 swap questions
hey guys.
The stickies are helping a bunch, but I still have questions.
Will I use my stock tpi air cleaner stuff on an lt1 swap?
It looks like the corvette accessory brackets will make the swap a little cleaner. Does anyone happen to know what all brackets are needed? Got P/Ns by chance? I want to keep the A/C.
Looks like my 2055 hookers and exhaust will all work, right?
Please clear me up on whether my speedo will work or what I'll need to make it work. No acronyms please. Its a 89 tpi auto now.
I'm thinking the best bet is to buy a complete car to swap from, since I know crap about lt1s. You guys agree? I'm afraid to get into a long drawn out swap after finding out I need a bunch of little bits and pieces. Of course these boards would probably save me if I needed help.
Thanks in advance.

Guess I'd like to know what parts I can start buying now so it'll go quick when I find a donor car.
Thanks
