What motor?

[drvngstorm05]

an lt1 will bolt up fine to a 700r4... no issues...

hells yea

what? ithat was the whole reason i was looking at a 350 tpi instead. I thought they could only go to the other tranny?

[drvngstorm05]

the lt1 is a gen II small block chevy... it will bolt up to the same things that a 305tbi tpi or 350tpi does... works with any third gen tranny... plus guys swap in t56's (only lt1 t56's not ls1) on their 305 tbi and tpi's... isn't the gen II sbc great?

[Genopsyde]

nope, that's the LS1 that won't work with the 700

[drvngstorm05]

but to answer ur earlier question... can you make power out of a 350 tbi? just ask geno... he kept the tbi setup... btw geno, get me up to date on the project, is it finished?

[97cavalier]

well crap then, lt1 you might be comming after all. on www.tbichips.com he is making a 92 camaro a lt1 and he has alot of info on there. And what all fuel stuff do i have to do when i get the lt1?

[drvngstorm05]

just different fuel lines (not hard lines, but from the hardlines to the fuel rail) and a more powerful fuel pump (that's the hard part of the fuel system, dropping the tank...)

[Genopsyde]

storm, getting ready to hook the trans to the motor then drop back into the car. I'm just slow and low on budget.

[drvngstorm05]

i hear ya there... unless you take more than a year and a half, you'll still have me beat on down time...

If you decide to go the LT1 route and are looking for a inexpensive motor. Shoot me a PM. I have a few in the garage. I can shoot you some pics. They have some good deals on ebay and threw local salvage yards as well though and you might be better off finding a local LT1 so as to not having a freight charge.

i'm getting close to 2yrs, but I did a lot more, and the car wasn't actually "down" until I decided to do the motor swap which began exactly one year ago.

[drvngstorm05]

it took two years for me technically, but the car was down for a year and a half...

[Genopsyde]

i did the lowering kit and suspension rebuild first, but drove the car once after that before i started to pull the motor last jan/feb.

[drvngstorm05]

me too... i did the rear end swap and all my suspension mods (save the crossmember and torque arm) a few months before i actually pulled the engine...
