Trans am GTA - Ls1 swap

Just did some painting under the hood today, still have some hard to get to spots. I removed the strut tower brace to make way for the upcoming supercharger. if you check out the older videos you will see there was alot more red under the hood. Give it a thumbs up if you want to see more videos of the progress.

IrocwarriorAMC88 is a tool.

@firechicken76 to be honoust how hard was this im thinking about doing a 5.3 in mine bored and ls intake and stuff?

[firechicken76]

@Mr1987GTA I didnt do it, but i know its not very hard, all the parts you need are sold by a few places, harness adapter, motor mounts, headers, trans x member etc, Do it, it will be the best thing you have ever dont to that car.

@GetsumJ your putting way too much thought into this, ALL I MEANT is that they are both considered 5.7, i understand they have different bores and strokes and make different cubic inches.

[GetsumJ]

@firechicken76 No offense, but when you are modifying cylinders, the actual liters is important. A true 350 Cid is actually 5.735 Liters and a true 347 is 5.686 :iters. GM labeled them 5.7s. Ford however used the correct formula (4.6 vs 5.0) No offense, but when you turn a SBC into a 352,355, 377,383,395,406,408,420, or a 434 stroker you have to kinda know these things. So a blanket statement stating the share the same liter size is a misconception. Every Liter has to be engineered correctly.

[firechicken76]

@GetsumJ you missunderstood what i meant, or you used it out of context. when i said "Just like the old 350s", i was only refering that they shared the same Liter size, I know ls1's are much different. they dont even have the same degree of cylinder heads, fireing order or bore/stroke.

[GetsumJ]

@firechicken76 I have to disagree. CiD is measured by the bore and stroke, A 350LT1 has a 4' bore x a 3.48 stroke which means 349.8 CiD. an LS1 has a bore of 3.903 x stroke 3.662. That's a 347. So the term "Just like the old 350s" is way off. They are two totally different powerplants. Not trying to be a jerk, just built quiet a few strokers in my life.
