Hello all, thought I'd share with you my GF's new toy.
This Camaro was originally a V6 5 speed car, now equipped with a 2002 6.0L with a T56. Swap was done by the previous owner, he had to let it go due to other expenses.
Mods:
2002 LQ4 6.0L
LS1 intake and accessory drive
90mm T/B, custom CAI
GM Hotcam, double roller chain
ported oil pump
36 lb/hr injectors
FAST fuel rails, -8 AN lines all the way to the tank
Long tube headers, 3in single exhaust, single flowmaster.
3.54 rear disc axle from a 98+
T56 six speed, Z06 clutch/flywheel
Already had to fix some things (no vacuum connected to FPR) but there is plenty more to do! The wiring is scary to say the least, but the car runs. The fans are on a manual switch, which is not necessary. The PO put together a custom dash with autometer gauges, half the gauges work currently,and there is no SES light. There is no underdash F/B and half the wiring was done with HomeDepot wire. The headlights don't work. Luckily I also got the stock gauge cluster with the car, so I'll be re-installing that along with building a new underdash harness.
Pics:
Its a good start at least, and I did get the complete car for the cost of the drivetrain. For the past week I've been putting in some time de-wiring the dashboard. Its a mess to say the least, but I've made headway.
I started with this.
Bunch of autometer gauges, generic digital speedometer, tiny tach in front of speedometer.
Progress:
Mostly cutting and tracing wiring. My plan is to restore basic circuits to the car for lighting, radio, wipers, etc. Re-install the stock gauge cluster. I have Delphi style 4 gang fuse blocks for the dash, since the underdash F/B is gone.
Hopefully all done and working in a week.
