As per title. Is this conversion feasible?

Cheers

I don't see why not. Just depends on how much work you are willing to do.

Btw, I have an LS6 engine and a built T56 for sale.

Ive seen it done before!
Ive seen some crazy transplants out of this shop, He just put a 572 and a 5speed in a 66 corvette and it fits like a glove, there is a photo of it in last months vette mag.

Hi.

In my homeland labour isn't very expensive.

How much for the engine and gearbox? PM me please.

Don't see why not.

Procharger put up some pics of a '67 Vette (last year of C2, I think) with an LS6 in their booth as the SEMA show.

SEMA photos enjoy

Seeing how I almost had my a** handed to me by a stock Honda going home in my '75 Monday night

**panzer** · 11-29-2007, 10:45 AM

Yes

is it possible as I have seen one before in our weekly car show around here.

I saw one at Carlisle. It looked good!

Also, a buddy has a '67 with an LS2 and a tube frame with C4 suspension. Quite a car, but he spent a lot of $$$$ to get it right, and it is beautiful.

This is a conversion I am going to be doing to my 70 this winter. I have an 02 LS1 from an SS camaro with 22k miles. I have pulled the 241 heads and they are being replaced by a set of 243's with Patriot Gold springs. I have a G5X2 cam going in. Ported throttle body and MAF. I had this planned for a long time. Then I picked up my 02 Z06 and the speed in this this car makes me think the 70 is going to be scary fast.

**panzer** · 12-27-2007, 07:24 AM

In addition to the engine I think a tube frame with its suspension change is essential. All that power in a 60's technology chassis..what would be the point. I have a 64 and you would not want to change just the engine.

they are doing this swap in a 72 singer right now, so I will take pix

Eddie 70 · 01-05-2008, 11:26 PM

Got my valve springs and pushrods in this week. I should start assembling my engine Sunday. I am excited about this one. I already have the cam installed.

Anything you can do to a C2, you can usually do to a C3 since the frames are so similar. Looking forward to seeing how this comes out!
