Here is a link to probably the first G-body Ls1 swap- Now an LS6. He did have all the technical details posted but now I cant find all the pages. Anyways, Cool car and I think it qualifies as protouring.

He is currently working on an LS7 swap in the car.

Thanks for the update
 

Maybe John can give us some performance figures when its done, and I am curious to how he fit 315's under the rear. Has his frame had the notch like in the tech file on maliburacing.com ? Curious because on the car I had it seemed that 285 was the max width to run on stock frame and tuck into the fender well.

He did notch the rear frame rails. Also he cut the inner fender wells from another car to widen that area. Also he welded a piece of tubing from one side to the other. I want to do it before it is all over with. I wish Centerline made the stars in 11" widths. I have called them a few times to try to convince them to make 2 of them, but they won't. They said they used to, but not any more. So I guess I will have to get a different brand.

Search on MonteCarloSS.com for it.

Heres the summation and pictures of the minitub to fit the large rear tires on Johns G-body.
