loved the video!! you have an amazing build. i just bought a 92 RS with the 305. i plan on putting in a 5.3 iron block and changing it from an auto to a manual. i have an excellent machanic who has done these type of swaps before. i hope my build come out as great as yous!!! 👍🏿
This is where gm guys should swap their ls engines NOT mustangs. These and g bodies and stuff like that are awesome with a nice ls/t56 combo. This one is nice. Even older s10 would be awesome for an ls swap.
pretty sure you might of chose my exhaust for me. I have a cammed LS1 with a t56 magnum & 9" that I have running good I finally need to figure out its exhaust. Can you tell me what kind of crossmember you use? it seems like all the nice setups use Hooker Blackheart for the exhaust clearance, but it almost looks like you have one of the BMR/UMI ones? I have a BMR T56 crossmember. I bought it when I first started my swap and was too broke for the Hooker and now I'm trying to figure out if it's going to be better before I do exhaust to bite the bullet and get the hooker crossmember and try to sell my BMR piece. If you're using one of the BMR/UMI style ones do you have any issue with exhaust clearance/scraping?
She's beautiful, 3rd Gens aremy preference as well. I sold my 92 rs in 2022 to start on the 5.3 LS swap in my 06 rt magnum wagon with a dead hemi . My 92 was clean and ran like new and all stock except her chrome 20 irocs so she didn't need her 305 swapped for an LS . I'm looking for another black 91 or 92 rs hardtop and may get a proj to use my other 5.3 swap I have . I love the 5.3 motors and all 3 of my burbans I have and drive are 5.3s (03,07 & 2010). I don't understand why I see more fox body stangs with LS swaps than 3rd Gen camaro ls swaps but there are 10k stangs of every body style with LS swaps rolling around or at strips
Just because a code says car part doesn't mean you need a car part. Sport for a Haynes manual for whatever you are driving or a single car 3 day access at Alldata or Mitchell, well worth the $25.
I’m seriously considering purchasing my father in law 85 iroc z with the 305 and 700r4. My intention would be to LS1 and T56 swap it with a black paint job. There is some sentimental value in the car itself compared to any other Camaro/firebird out there… but is this swap worth it for the $$
im still waiting on my housing and 3rd member to come in i went with 3.70 gears and back braced for my 98 trans am i had mine powder coated and after watching your video im gonna run my brake lines the same way so thank you foi that and i have all umi under my car as well so this help me out a whole lot thanks!
