    I've always wanted to do an LS1 swap. Nice work buying a complete parts car. That will save you a lot of hassle tracking down the wiring/accessories/fuel system. Then you also get to sell off all the other parts from the F body to make some cash back.

    The LSx engine is super easy to get more power out of. Cam and intake will take you a ways. Once you get it in and running well you could consider stepping up to a set of aftermarket cylinder heads for even more fun. Have you checked out LS1tech yet? If not, you need to. You can spend hours searching and reading to learn all there is to know about building these engines up.

    Good luck with the rest of the project

      im not gona lie in the beginning i found this car 1st Camaro with the LS1 but he siad he had 2 buyers lined up, So i was like ehh hell with the car. And right before i was getting ready to purchase the 750 V12 lol he contacted me back stating those guys low balled him. so i jumped on this.

      but yea i am registered on LS1tech. I searched on there, it is so broad on that forum as to whats kinda info your looking for or want to know. but mr rooster needs to sell me that kit for 1200 like he paid and not no 3k lol so i can get the main part of this build started!! both motors are pulled and i keep calling garret and he just doesnt want to pick up. so hell with it. ill figure something out... i might just to a cam and intake for now. later do heads if the funds persist me to
