I wrecked my 95' camaro LT1 convertible with PIP insurance and did 6 grand in body damage... To say the least I went on EBAY and bought a 94' Firebird body, with a blown engine, took out the motor and K-frame and computer and replaced them with the ones from the camaro..

The Firebird was ready to be cranked, and the motor turned over with the Firebird key, but there was no spark to the motor, I was then told because of the chip on the key I had to swap out the lock and key, So I did that, and now I have more gauges than I did, but now the motor won't even turn over, could there be something I overlooked? Someone told me it sounds like the starter, like its not clicking, something like that... I just can't for the life of me figure out why it tried to crank with the firebird key, but now with the camaro key it won't...

Now mind you, I have the 5.7 camaro motor, the camaro computer, camaro lock and key, and camaro K-frame in the Firebird now...

Not that it matters but I have the leather seats from the camaro in it too...

Any suggestions on fixing this problem?

 

what was the factory engine in the FIrebird? If it was a V6 then you are going to need to replace the firebird's dash and under dash wiring with that of the camaro too. These cars are built to the power train and everything from the heater to gauges to suspension is based on the engine the car was to get from the factory. If you are using the firebird BCM then use the firebird key, if you can crank the engine then the chip in the key is fine.
