Are the parts and instructions to swap a LS1/A4 into my 95 vette readily available?

Read my thread on an LS7 in a C4. That's the main thread on this subject.

Did that, but seems there is no comparison between the LS1 and LS7. I know a lot of people have put an LS1 in a C4, just looking for a swap kit, or if there is such a thing. |

Think about that statement for a second.
The LS1 and LS7 are of the same family of engines. They have a pot load more in common with each other than either do with your LT1. The technical issues are the same. AFAIK, there are no kits out there to plug/play. The later LT1 cars added a ton of complexity to this... and that is what I am exploring. |

I haven't really read up on it but you're saying that putting an LS1 into a L98 car is less complicated?

If you put in the LS7 and added the new Edelbrock supercharger for it, you might be able to outrun the bullet ;-) |

Yes way harder to do in the later cars, not impossible but more wiring issues.

Mine is just tired of it always sitting in the garage in one state of diassembly or another. Plus the outlay of $$ that we really don't have.
A guy can dream though. |

I'm doing a swap right now into my 91. The only 2 things I am worried about is integrating the A/C and ABS into the Camaro LS1 PCM.
