You are very timely for my installation. Same headers, same car. I was ready to tear into it tonight, but now I will round up the necessary parts first.
I have moroso solid mounts on the frame and speedway block mounts with some ict billet adapters and the same headers and didnt have to clearance or change anything. They cleared everywhere on a 79 camaro
I love my z28, but ill be damned if I have to fix an 40ish year old trans or engine again and have seen that your using the same motor that I am looking at buying. I hope to see more videos so that I am not so blind going in. Thank you for everything you have shown so far!
Great info! I am doing an LS swap on a 79 Z28 right now, what did you do for your alternator bracket? Mine hits the idler arm and interferes with motor mount in down low stock location
Out of curiosity, how far does that intake manifold set down below the hood? I have an 81 Z28 that I am an LS2 built for and can’t decide rather to go with a Fast LSXR intake or the taller LSXHR. I know the LSXHR wont fix under a stock hood and I’m not even sure it would fit under a cowl hood.
Hey! Project is driving. I just didn't finish editing videos. I ended up using a more shallow trans pan from a g8. That pan made it sit about where the oil pan was height wise.
Thanks! Hard to say without trying. I tried to film a bunch of space and fitment shots. Maybe they will help you get an idea relative to the camaro body?
Ur the Only Vidio that Shows those Vbans which too me is unbelevable bc i was wonndering how do u Connect the Exhaust,so good Vidio
Thanks!

Glad to be of help!
Mine came with bungs in a usable place. Maybe they changed them?@@CarGuyFridays
Maybe so! I'd love to hope my video helped that hah

Nice! I'd guess it's really dependent on where the lsx swap mounts sit the engine. Doing nothing but bolting them in would have been great!
Thanks for video, I'm going to order a set for my 70 Camaro Ls. I would suggest some remflex gaskets and new bolts.

Went with one of these so I could keep using my existing accessories.

It's pretty far below the hood line. You could certainly go taller. How much taller I'm not sure off hand.
Do you think they would clear the z bar in a muncie transmussion.. 69 Firebird
I've unfortunately no clue. Good luck in the build!
Holly mount kit?
Yep it's the holley blackheart mount kit. Hopefully this info helps someone else!
does the trans pan hang to low to the ground? Is this project on hold?. Thanks

@@CarGuyFridays Could I contact you please?
Sure. I believe youtube let's you email me from the home page?
I will need to change trans. pan too.@@CarGuyFridays
Good information. Wondering if they would fit on a 1968 chevelle/ el camino
Thanks!
