Who ever said a factory LS1 won't fit in a 68? The only problem is the steering hitting the oil pan

thanks everyone and i think your right mr quick after reading it for a second time... anybody know if the 4th gen transmission arm would work? also would i have to disable abs or does the computer disable by itself since the sensors were taken off.

arm? do you mean torque arm from the rear end? Should be fine with the ABS. What master are you running?

[onebad68]

all parts including master coming off of the 01 ss so far. i was talking about the wiper transmission arm, thanks.
