I think it would be a lot easier to use an aftermarket trans controller, instead of messing with retuning or replacing the computer.

Yup I have the new PCM and wiring harness. We're pulling it from my buddies camaro that I took the motor an tranny from. It is a built 4L60E with a 4000 stall and it is from performabuilt. Yes it is an LT1. Its an LT1 bored out to a 355 with all forged internals, LE heads, 1.6 roller rockers, with a cc503 cam, ported and polished intake, Moroso CAI, Pacesetter long tubes flowing out to 3" tubing out to flowmaster. I have BMR lower control arms, BMR torque arm, I still have to get subframe connectors. It has 3:73's in the rear. And for looks it still has the 5" cowl hood in my pic but its getting new paint (tow truck accident) and ZR1 wheels with nitto drag radials on the rear for street driving, but for the track I am putting a set of mickey's on my stock wheels. Oh and before I forget i added a "just in case" button.

94 and 95 auto and manual ecms are the same and can be tuned for one or the other. you will need the wire harnesses from a auto. you can have the trans built to shift maunally but then your still shifting.

Anyone know where I can get a good set of subframe connectors that isnt blowing my pockets apart. I still have to get them and an optispark and the optispark is gonna cost me $500 as it is. Im running low on money, I've been trying to get sponsors seeing as ive been doing really well the last couple years so thatd be nice to have some extra money for the built as well as advertising for some good local companies.

I was under the impression starting this year anything under 12 seconds had to have a cage? Do frame connector do anything on a car with a cage welded in?

Maybe the 12 second thing is just a local for me?

Must be local because its 11.49 and quicker at my track. ill try and post up some pics on the motor and tranny swap if I get a chance. not sure what kind of subframe connectors im going to get, definetely weld ins but right now i don't have the money for them, im trying to sell some other parts to get the money for them but no ones biting on them.
