BAD NEWS RE: LT-1 Project - Little Q Content
Well the summation of this is definitely "buyer beware!"
After much agony and effort I have found that what I have in my garage is
not what I wanted to buy. The engine was sold to me as a "95 Camaro LT-1",
what I have is most likely a '93 Caprice L-99 which is a low displacement
(4.3L) and lower horse power engine. Anyone considering buying a used Chevy
engine, get your facts straight before laying out cash. This one looked,
and weighed just like a real LT-1. Only the Chevy Customer Assistance
Center was able to sort out what the engine really was.
What tipped me off? Well when trying to order parts I have the ECU
identified and it was for an engine from the '93 model year!
So once again I will be on the prowl for a REAL LT-1 engine.
