Ok What parts do I need for the LS1 Swap???
I have a 91 Firebird V6/AT......


OK: I have this stuff down:

-LS1/4l60E
-Motor Mounts
-4L60E Crossmember
-Fuel Pump
-Fuel Linesut
-LS1 Ac Compressor
-Cold Air Kit
-Radiator(Will a 4th gen radiator fit???)
-Speartech Wirng Harness

Is this about it???

What am I missing???

Also, What about tranny mounts??

What will have to be reprogrammed in the ECU???

Thanks

You don't need a new radiator, a 3rd Gen one will work fine

Also check out the post at the top of the forum, they have a comprehensive list of parts needed to get this swap completed, much more then i can explain in one post...

Alright, so i missed that important factor

I'm not sure how the V6 works and if you need to change it, but a aluminum radiator replacement for the 305 and 350's will work just fine, you don't need a 4th Gen one....

Ask Stangklr, he swapped from a V6 and is currently installing an LS1 into his car, he might have the answers you are looking for.....
