LS Swapping an Abandoned 2nd Gen Camaro (former race car)

A while back we came across a forgotten 1978 Camaro z28 in a storage shed. It was a rolling shell of a former drag car, robbed of it's original 350/th350 combo, and the perfect candidate for an LS swap. We walk you through the entire process including finding a donor vehicle (a Chevy Suburban with an LM7 5.3), performing a cam and spring swap, building the trans, engine mounts, fuel systems, etc. We also cover what areas are good to save money (for those performing a budget minded LS swap) and areas that are worth spending extra. During the process our roller Camaro has turned out to be much more incomplete than we originally thought. In future videos we'll cover installing vintage air, building a dash and gauge panel, wiring, and much more.
