Does anyone know of a kit to put a SBC motor into a Gen 5 chassis? Thanks

 

I really doubt that exists given most are LS powered if V8 and 99% of those wanting to swap a V8 into a V6 car will want an LS.
Even doing an LS swap into a V6 car has a lot of obstacles to overcome.
You didn't post which you have V8 or V6.

 

I have a V6 car currently with a bad motor. Am planning on doing some serious mods to it to make it a drag and drive car. Have a 383 stroker on nitrous to put in it from my last car (71 Camaro SS). Just was hoping someone knew of some parts that are created that would make the start of project a little easier. Like you said, everyone wants a LS put in anything and there are multiple companies making kits for that to happen in about every GM Body from "55 to current. I am trying to go reverse technology and go old school in late model chassis. Dont mind the challenge, just seeing if it could be easier.

 

Well good luck with it, pretty sure it's going to mean getting things fabed up and then there's the electrical issues involved.

 

Are you worried about the mechanical bolt in part. Motor mounts, Trans mount. Do you know what trans you are running. The motor mounts and cross member are not a big deal. I assume since you are asking you do not have welding in your tool box? For decades we put small blocks in everything. You can buy off the shelf bolt in mount kits and cross members kits. It will be no different than putting a SBC in a Mustang. You just need to understand drive line angles.

Note: I could not find a You tube video on drive line angles I liked. Some were just wrong and some missing important information. I am thinking about making one, but it seems like a lot of work and my lift is tied up.

The mount of the engine/trans will be the easy part. Everything on that car will run off the computer systems, AC/heat, power windows and power doors, lights. Once you start not using parts of the computer system most of it will not work. Now if you are gutting the car and just using the shell they it does not matter but you will be removing all the safety equipment. A car that is designed with side impact air bags is designed differently than one without, a roll cage and racing seat with harness should be on you wish list. After all those hours of work and money in parts the car would worth less than it is right now.

You could also put a used engine in it and sell it and easily have enough money to build a much lighter 3rd gen Camaro. You could also find a wrecked 5th gen SS and use your body parts to fix it. That LS motor can handle more HP than the SBC. The block is a "Y" shape and has 6 bolt mains. Heads, CAM , bolt on's and a tune will put you around 500hp. Engine will even take a blower with the stock bottom end.
