  1. Its 74 and up that need to pass the smog requirements. However if for some reason your caught with a more modern engine in your car you can be flag for a referee inspection. Of course they need your consent, a warrant, or probable cause to search you engine bay.

     

    Before I was into Zs I was into Camaros. Wanted to stuff a 502 in my 74, but I would've had to wait till 2004. That car was heavy it weight over 4000lbs. 1st ride in a Z changed that plan.

  2. LS1 Engine Kit Installation Guide (GM Goodwrench part# 88959384) $48 35 pages. It covers the general instalation of a LS1 and 4L60E into what ever. Schematics, Diagrams, Sensor info, alternating parts between C5, Firebird, Camaro. It dosn't talk about not using the Cats! I did inform how any and all of those bolt holes on the sides of the block could be used for custom motor mounts.

  3. sorry about the late responce. I was rearended on my way home from work in my 72. I'm a little banged up, had to sleep it off. :eek:bonk.gif:confused::mad:

     

    Yes, those are 17 in rims there is a huge spacer between them and the mounting, worries me a bit, don't know how this will affect the wheel bearings. They have 225/45/17 kumho estca supras. The rear spoiler is carbon fiber and aluminum. I bought this car because all of the body work was already done and saved me some major buck$ on my project plan. Plus the guy I bought it from implemented some great ideas.

     

    I plan on running without the cats, I believe it will still run cleaner than the l28.

     

    I will not need the power steering pump but will the rest of the accessories fit between the fender walls? I have talked with Dando's out of San Jose, CA about mounting the engine and trany, They have indicated that they might be able to mount it closer to the fire wall and lower in the engine compartment with their custom mounts. I of course will do the rest. Also are any of you running the Holden or vette manifold? The pics from the LS1 Instalation Guide make it look like they might work better for the install.
