ok to let you knowwhat i have is a 94 z28. i got the new motor from my uncles 96 impala that he had fully built. eagle crank, lunati pistons and rods, bored .30 over ,comp custom cam, crane 1:6 roller rockers, and trick flo heads. now i new that the timming covers were different frm my 94 motor but i thought that the drive setup for the distributor was the same. i also think that the crank hub is a differnt size to. can i use athe 96 distrbutor with my 94 harness or am i going to have to change the whole gear and chain setup? Is the crank hub for the 96 a differnt size then the 94? And is there going to be any other issues i have still to run into with the change. appriate it very much you guys are the **** lol.

 

u will need to use a 96 style opti. u can get a wire harness adapter from summit or jegs.

the hubs set onto the crank shaft at different depths. i dont think they are a different size but may be. im having problems getting the new hub on my 96 motor. have not had time to look into it yet.

 

thaks for the link. i just wasent shur also if the 96 opti would wrk with the computer. well that deff saves me alot of bull****. but now will i still have to use the 96 cover and wat i will just have to block off the cam sensor hole. now as far as you say may b different depths will that have balancing issues if i use the 94 dampner? thanks

 

both engines are internally ballanced so either will work. im pretty sure u can use the cover and block the sensor outlet. as long as it fits it should work. try before u install so if u do need a different cover it will be easier to change. let me know i may use a newer cover so its easier to change to a fast ignition setup.

 

i will deff let you now but first i have to have my block checked out to see what i am going to have to do with cylinder number 1. sucks just want to get this thing in the car already.

 

i know the feeling, i have a new built motor waiting to go in and i dont want to do it till i have the headers and trans to go with it. anticipation. the good thing is i have a running motor in the car also so i have wheels.

 

see u still get to drive your z thoe lol my motors out and now im driving a bagged v8 s10 that i needn to sell
