Any details on this? Special ignition / or control box? or is it as simple as changing the ignition wires?

Default LS1 and T56 on a Budget?? Sort of....

BUMP to the Top!!

I bought a wrecked 99 Camaro with a T56 which is swapping into my 1969 Camaro. Lots of parts are finding their way into the first-gen, the dash, steering column, console, front seats, e-brake set up. It is a lot cheaper then you might think if you can find a donor car with all kinds of working parts to steal from. Selling parts off the 1999 to help fund the 1969 build. I bought a 1969 painted shell that someone else ran out of money and I picked it up. Not exactly a budget build, but a TON less than most other projects shown under construction on this site.

I think I just might be CRAZZZZY enough to get the gauge cluster, trunk release, wiper motor and cruise control working in it too after I tear apart the wiring harness and delete the unnecessary stuff.

I don't want to mess with the stock ABS, heater or sound systems from the 1999. I'm planning to go aftermarket for the heater/AC and sound system.

Hopefully by the fall I will be close to deciding on a setup. But right now Im leaning towards an LS3/stroker. Then maybe throwing a blower or snail on it down the road...

Sorry for the late response, missed it.

The aluminum first gen small block is from PBM. No special ignition, just a cam with LS firing order, MSD distributor w/6AL box and it is naturally aspirated. I picked up the motor from NYES Automotive out of Muncie, Indiana. Motor came with everything but carb, distributor, and accessories for $9500 including 168 tooth fly wheel and Moroso pan. I worked a deal to where I sent them my intake, Canton road race pan, and in trade they supplied a Hays aluminum flywheel. I also sent them my carb, distributor, and Lakewood bellhousing and they aligned the bell housing and dyno'ed the motor for me all inclusive so I couldn't pass.
