'67 GTO LS3 Swap

[CFster]

Hi, I'm new to this forum - I've mostly been posting over at PT and LS1 tech.

We're in the process of swapping a brand new LS3 into our '67 GTO. We had a 4L60E in it so we're keeping that.









C5 accessory kit with a Kwik Perf A/C bracket.



S&P shorty headers and an AutoKraft oil pan. Edelbrock mounts.









It fell in. Piece of cake.



The front end came up when we pulled the 400, and barely moved back down with the new motor!



The harness and ECU is from SpearTech.

We have an AFCO radiator coming with built in shroud and fan.

For suspension I've ordered (from SC&C) a front AFX kit with upper and lower arms, and rear upper and lower Currectract arms. Adjustable conventional Varishocks all the way around with new springs. Spohn/SC&C rear Pro-Touring bar and front Hellwig bar.

For brakes we'll be going with C6 Z06 brakes front and rear from Kore3. The calipers are painted silver without the Corvette logo.

For rims I'm thinking of these:



Trying to bring myself to do it though.

The sizes should be:

Front: 18x8 with P245/40r18
Rear: 18x9.5 with P275/40r18

If it stops snowing up here in New England on the weekends we can get busy again (took a break over the holidays). Have to work on plumbing and wiring.
