67 to 2011 swap
 
ok I know I’m gonna get some haters on this but here goes . My 67 RS/ss 396 4 speed was my dads first car he bought RIP DAD & my first car . He was a racer and this car ruled the streets making so much power the engine is strapped down on the dr side with a logging chain . Still is actually, same chain . So back in the day our members Fathers and there friends do the same thing the new kids on the block do now . I’m in the middle of old and new school so I can rip on both sides . They modified it to be faster Handel better and be fun to drive . So I bought a 2011 Camaro SS that was in a very minor crash my dream for quite a while has been to make it present day driveable fun & reliable . So I’m talking full front and rear suspension swap Ls3 turbo 6 speed (came wit a 5 k dollar turbo kit) full harness throughout the whole car from the 2011 . I’m a bit of a wiring guru and to be honest there is no reason to reinvent the wheel it’s there it works it runs so that harness does not give a crap what car it is in . It needs power and ground. So is there any mad sientist that has figured out how to do the suspension swap so I don’t have to go back to college to make this work

5th generation Camaros use Struts, you're going to have a very hard time adapting them to the car without re-engineering the subframes. You'll be better off upgrading the control arms, sway bars, and springs for a 1st gen. You may be able to adapt the IRS into the car, but there are bolt in IRS kits out there.

Check out Big Brake Upgrade for brackets to adapt the 2011 brakes to your car. I've used these kits a few times and they're great.
