WTD: LS1 engine and 6 spd tranny

they're everywhere I got one for my 57, LS1 with the automatic trans. You need to buy the Painless Wiring kit for engine/fuel inj management it has its own computer Mine's not done yet , hopefully only a few more weeks kickstart

Not a chance of using the Corvette engine/transmission without major modifications. Most are using the Camaro LS1 setup that eliminates the rear mounted transmission. Like the old days I'm sure it will be called a Corvette engine. Like the first modification used back then was to change the valve covers so you had a Corvette engine. Today just add a couple of decals and a fat muffler tip and BINGO, 700 HP. ;-p

Thanks for info on the rear mounted tranny. Unfortunately, there not everywhere up in Alberta. Seems to be plentiful in the States but I'm miles from nowhere. I'll drive down to the NW states depending on the condition and price of the engine/tranny. Shipping is a big killer cost.

I've though tof us>

My preference would be the LS1, who cares what people think if it's from a Camaro? Nothing against the LT1, just have grown fond of the smoothness and power of the LS1.
