weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! it's neat having a manual trans car that never came manual in this country! I did the same to my carlo ss, but T5. Still fun rowing those gears to that exhaust note!
Nice work, idea bro. I almost did a 94 LT1 6M swap into my 73 Trans Am but was able to fix the Z and still have it 12yrs later. Anyway this about you not me and I have drempt of this swap for a while now. That's all a monte SS ever needed was a good engine. I had an 84 SS.
IM DOING THIS LS1 SWAP IN MY 69 2DOOR DELTA 88.... REPLACING THAT GAS HOG 455 WITH A LS1.... IM GONG AUTO THO.... NICE VIDS MAN BEST SWAP I HAVE SEEN THUS FAR..... YOU KNOW ANYONE LOOKING FOR A 455/TR400 LET ME KNOW. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK BRO
everything looks good bot most importantly does it got a/C and did you make ur own mounts im doing a similar swap on my 87 ss im using 4l60e and ls1 0f 02 z28 did u mod driveshaft
i found an 85 monte carlo ias gonna buy its $6,800 , im 13 i was gonna spend all the money i will make with my jobs to buy it and fix it up, sound lika good idea?
Damb who ever built this has some mad skills ! Did you have some Extra bracing Installed ?The factory G-body frames tend to flex alot. On the one I had I put a 1x1 square tube right before the bumper mounts with gussets for ridgidedy aswell as a boxed and x braced center section,I was going to put the 1x1 bar in the front to but never got around to it .All this made a huge difference .Also you might want to Install some mini Ladder bars it stops the axle wrap.
@chevylex5150 Exactly. Your not wrong about the lingo. Its one thing to say you have an LsX block vs. saying I have an Lsx motor in my car.. X is just a variable.. In my case, I have an iron block with all high performance oriented parts.. It aint no damn lq4 no more. I just call it a Ls motor.
This goes hard my boy you did that. Who's mike? The guy who helped you with computer help I need a local guy for this stuff. Check me out I'm in the gbody game too
@youngdeezy510 thank you man. Mark is a friend of mine who pointed me in the right direction when i lost the body control module for the camaro and needed to bypass the VATS system(factory chipped key alarm). no shop or anything. BTW that cuttlass is clean!!!
@chevylex5150 your right, alot of people with iron block truck engines call them lsx engines, because they are the same gen as ls1's just a variation, or people with stroked engines, LSX is just refering to gen III or IV engine.
@VOAOURKZ they are almost the same width. 2 holes in the middle on top are the same. use them to hold it up while you mark where to trim and later, make brackets. i installed and removed that F$%king dash like 20 times before i got it to sit how i wanted it. having the seats and everything else out helps a lot so take your time and get everything else out of your way. extend heater ducts with parts u can find at a hardware store
this is the tightest shit ever... even got the fucking dash in there... that shit is saucy i had to bring that word back from the fucking 90s for this shit LOL
too cool of a build. i want one now.
