BIG UPDATE!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve actually been working on this for a while now and just completely spaced updating the page that I had created years ago for this thing. I found a lower mile 6.2L\/10L80 out of a 2022 Camaro so I figured this would be perfect for it. Hawks Third Gen sells some swap parts for the Gen5 engines so I bought their mounts, trans crossmember, and longtube headers along with their branded subframes and torque arm setup since I needed something to relocate the torque arm off the back of the transmission. I started with installing the subframes and torque arm setup first so it would be ready for the swap when I had the chance\u2026 well I finally got started with the swap. My time is very limited, not sure why I even decided to take on another project right now so it’s been slow going and who knows how long it’s going to take for me to finish it but here are some progress pics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Picked this up a month or so ago and it only has an original 65k miles on it! I’m going to just make it a nice driver but eventually it’s going to get an LT-x swap with an 8 speed auto, just not sure on what LT engine yet. I will post up more pictures here shortly but just wanted to get a page started for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
