LS7 into my first gen Fbody

[TANKMASTERJ]

Ok new to swaps
Wanting to put an LS7 out if a 2016 Z28 with tr6060 in my 67 Camaro
I got a Speedtech front sub. Standard not the extreme.
Will the accessories drive on the LS7 fit or will I need other?
Also the cast exhaust manifold's. Will these work?
Thanks
Jason

Tank, I just did a LS7 in a buddy's 67 w/ full AME chassis (GT clip)
the vette accessory drive will fit fine
are you keeping it dry sump or converting to wetsump?
his car had the AME SS headers for the AME chassis, not sure if the stock manifolds will work, most likely they will, since they take up less space than the headers, but I would contact Blake / Jay etc @ Speedtech to confirm

you aren't going to be able to use that trans mission form a Vette in your car

It’s out of a Camaro Z28 not a vette. Too bad one of those got wrecked. That’s a rare beast!

[badazz81z28]

I agree, answers SpeedTech will
Know for sure. Send them a PM, he is a member here.

Kind of want to keep it dry sump. But again I need to ask questions. I'll ask Blake or Jay at Speedtech.
And yes it is a Camaro Z28 combo not a vette combo

[c4racer2]

14 or 15 for the record. 2016 was the new 6th gen and the Z28 was no longer available.

[badazz81z28]

The car it came out of really doesn’t make a difference. The Z28 has a better starter and different front accessories.

[TANKMASTERJ]

Yeah I was just wondering if the accessories were going to work or if I'd have to go aftermarket

[TANKMASTERJ]

Well I pulled the trigger on an LS7.
Built with LMR 630hp kit. Ingot to figure out the dry sump pan and accessory drive.
I got computer, and clutch flywheel with engine.
Still need harness. But the ecm is gun d for the engine. Harness was damaged in fire

[TANKMASTERJ]

Ok wiring harness recommendations.
I've got a GM ecm tuned for this LS7 current build and no harness as it burned in a fire.
Should I just get a factory style or????

I've looked around and been told the GMPP harness is hard to beat as it comes complete with sensors and a pedal. I don't know if you can get it without an ECM though...

I have the GMPP harness, but I did have to cut and re-crimp connectors to get the harness to be a clean install. Many of the wires I felt were too long.

[TANKMASTERJ]

Any thoughts on cable driven versus drive by wire throttle body's?
Until now I wans an old school guy. Trying to get up to speed

If using the factory computer you have, you’ll have to run the DBW.
I personally like DBW and don’t feel there is much of any delay when driving or racing.

I'll stick with the DBW then. My ECM came with the take out programmed by Late Model Racecraft.
Dale you got any wiring harness preference as mine was burned in the wreck it came out of
