not nearly done but its a start what do you guys think

 

some more pics

 

also any info on making the t5 linkage work to thge t56 would help havent looked at it to much yet just tryingto stay on top of things

 

who's rear coilover kit?

 

I assume you are using the hydraulic setup for the clutch. Use the entire setup from an LS1 car. The clutch master fits just like a T5 setup.

 

on my 89 I used my t-5 master (it was new) and I just installed the ls1 line to it. (pushed out the roll pin installed the new line and pressed the roll pin back in. that simple) this allowed me to use the same thirdgen pedals, retainer and so on for a real easy install.

 

Geez, I REALLY wish that I was half as far along as you are - I'm still buying/locating parts!!

(BTW, that shop looks bad-@$$...)

 

sweet thanks for the info on the trans guys and the front and rear coil overs i got from spohn they are qa1

 

Lookin good. That trans cross member is going to cause you trouble when you route the exhaust. Might want to start looking into other options there

 

.

 

Looks good so far. Are you stick with the stock manifolds? I made that mistake when I did my swap. I spent so much time and money trying to make something work. And every time it would leak. So I smartened up and got a set of long tubes from hawks. They look so nice and fit so good. Are you keeping the motor stock?

 

na i got a set of longtubes from spohn the same ones hawks sells but ull have to get the exhaust done from there back and the engine will not be stock i got a good deal on a set of afr 205s and i may go ahead and stroke it to a 383 but im just worried about the tranny an d rear giving up on me

 

really how bad is the crossmember how tuff to fit longtubes also i was lookin at the t5 and t56 set up the t5 uses a slave cyinder and t56 is hybrolic can i just remove the cylinder and run a line from the master cylinder thanks here are some more pics

 

still waiting for spindles brakes and missing bolts and the harness so im kinda stuck

 

Read this. Especially the exhaust section. Click on all the links. LOTS of pics

everything off an ls f-body will work
follow the link to see our swap

 

ok im about to hit a few problems im using my stock tank with a better pump wher do most of you mount your regulator at and does anyone have oics of the spohn crossmember cut to fit the y pipe thanks

 

Your gonna have to figure out how to use the search button man. These topics are covered in depth many times over. Lots of pics and descriptions. For instance if you READ the sticky and follow the links you might have noticed this on the fifth link;

Hmm right at the top looks like a pic with a regulator mounted where many of us have done so. Dont take this post as a flame fest its not. its just that if you cant figure out how to find some of this basic stuff by searching your going to get lost in no time and find your waiting for replies to redundant threads. This swap is covered in pretty solid detail now and all these questions are covered. As a suggestion next time you find yourself thinking a question like this check out what the stickies here and over at LS1tech have to say and I think you'll find you will save a TON of time. If its not in the stickies then SEARCH and yet again I'd be mighty surprised if you dont find answers.

Hope that is of some help

 

sorry man i am just on a very tight schedule and trying to do this as fast as possible only have six weeks to get all the parts info and work out all the bugs witch isnt alot of time plus i got school im just caught up with everything sorry for not looking

 

I'm only trying to help you save time bro. Theres lots for you to go yet and as I see it theres no point in posting and waiting to hear what info is already available for you. As I said I'm not trying to flame or say your not going to get help I'm just trying to help you get it done as easy as possible by pointing out the obvious. We've been there and believe you me I have had my fair share of posts along the way in confusion land so no worries. Good luck

 

you can look at the pics in my link to see how we mounted our but in actual work time it took us like two or so weeks to do everthing to get our car done. but we ran into problems like the headers didn't fit, was the major hold up

 

yea thanks man i know what your sayin and socal what headers were they and here are some more pics i finaly got the spindles and the engine in
