crack3rjack · 05-11-2004

ive been searching the internet for hours and i cant find ANYTHING on a zr1 swap. i recently had the opprotunity to buy a zr1 and trans cheap. i also picked up a 1994 firebird i would like to drop the engine into. does anyone have any information that might help me with it, or does anyone know where to find information on a zr1 swap? any help would be appreciated. BTW ive never done a swap before.

It can be done, but its going to be allot of work, especially if its your own swap. Does that motor come with a wiring harness and ECM?

If you pass on the motor and Trans, I may be interested.

let us know if you decide to do the swap!

I think street and performance may offer a wiring harness made for conversions
