Good afternoon, Can someone tell me what I will need to use for the installation of a 2004 GTO LS-1 engine into a 1969 Firebird convertible. Also what is an excellent quality and reliable hydraulic clutch set up. Will the original 2004 GTO set up work with an aftermarket Tremec TKO 600 five speed. This is a completely new adventure for me so I am all ears at this point. Please offer any advice you feel has value and is proven sucessful.
What oil pan is best for this application & pump pick up if something else is necessary ?
Engine mounts from ? DSE ? Go with set back mounts to clear factory GTO oil pan if necessary ? DSE offers mounts w/ 1.5" set back towards firewall for additional room. Is this necessary for my application ?
Transmission cross member if stock 1969 automatic unit will not work.
Wire harness modified or made new by ? Street & Performance ? M&H ?
Computer re-flashed by ?
Hydraulic clutch set up by ?
Nice exhaust system, pre mandrel bent for this conversion (LS-1 / 69 Firebird).
I am sure there a whole host of additional questions so please feel free to add or remove as necessary. Thank You very much.
