Very cool swap!

Unfortunately it isn't a third gen and this thread will likely get locked.

Regardless,I give you credit.Those 4th gens are a pain in the ***.Looks like a nighmare the way the engine sits so far back under the dash like that.You had to of used like a 1 inch tall breather.

You've probably seen LT1 and LS1 swaps into 3rd gens. That's allowed.

If the content can be considered "3rd gen related", then it is permissible. However, yours is about the 4th gen platform itself, so it isn't.
