Will a Gen I SBC or an LT1 mate up to a 4T60 or 4T65E....
I see northstar swaps for FWD cars, but I've never seen an LT1 any small block Transversly mounted. I know they are about the same size, infact the Northstar is probably bulkier... Hummmmm.... [IMG]http://i142.photobucket.com/albums/r97/BG528/MonteCarloZ34007.jpg[/IMG] DG |

I don't know about the tranny mate up but I have seen an LT1 in a Fiero.

I am almost positive the Fiero uses the 4T60.
I wonder if anyone has done this swap into a FWD car? DG |

I don't think its the same LS sized motor we are all familiar with; both displacement and size. Although I am not really sure. I am coming up on 200K and that 3.4L DOHC is worn out. Chances are Ill just keep driving it till it dies, I have pleanty of projects that I can put the few $$ I have left into, but I started looking on google for a new drivetrain and this stuff popped up. Got me thinking! Thinking is very dangerous, especially when I attempt to do it. Honestly, though... On the cool scale.. LT1 powered FWD Monte.. 1-10? DG |

They use an aluminum 5.3 litre. It's rated at 303 hp.
It's still an LSx engine, so don't expect any major differences, except for fitment modifications - think the Caddy Northstar when they converted it from FWD to RWD installation. The motor mounts and bosses on the block need to be modified accordingly. |
