L67 swap help needed

You're going to have to bypass the anti-theft somehow. If you don't get a chip you'll have to find another way around it, there are three different types of anti-theft. I believe though I may be wrong about this, I know I read it somewhere.

I'm going to be soon.

 

it's funny because i never really hear of anyone talking about an S1 L67 swap into a W-body, and i would *think* it would be quite a bit easier than the S2 swap. i know the '92-'93 L67 had a rather weak rating of 205hp, but the '93-'94 had 220 or 225 hp...that aint too bad. i'd rather have a 220hp L67 than a 220hp LQ1.

I know how it has the lower HP rating, but the simplicity is what I'm looking for. I'll give up the extra HP that a SII offers just to have that ease of installation. Once I get a good job, and prices on them come down, I'm dropping in a Series III.

Why not just drive the shit out of your 3.1 and drop in a SIII when that shits out? I can see why you'd want to get rid of the 3.1 for a 3800, but why do two engine swaps?

How are these posts above helping me any :confused:

 

Oh and shawn yes they make a chip for the swap hell they would even wire the wiring harnesses together for me on L67swap.com

http://l67swap.com/store/ click on the swap kits

 

i don't know i'm not doing any major modifaction to the L67 i'm getting so thats why i wonder if i need this chip or not :?

i'll get the drive axles done by my uncle that is a welder he can weld anything. he did the tube frame for my chevelle that got jacked.

oh well i'll figure it out. i hope its a passkey3 cause the is a chip offered on clubgp for like 30 bucks opposed to 340 from L67swap.com :wink:

Because I can get a Series I L67 out of the yard now for $110, and have a working car with 3800 done in a week. The Series III is going to cost major $$$$$$$$$$ and will take a while getting everything worked out. Plus, that'll be in two or three years anyway. I need some 3800 power now, lol.

works for me :) an S1 L67 should pull a W-body along pretty good, and you'd save a helluva lot of money over an S2 swap. aftermarket might be a consideration here - i would assume ALOT is available for the S2, but maybe not the S1. i would think an S1 with a few mods should hang with a stock S2 no problem, ecspecially if you put the car on a diet.

 

the S3, well....unless you got some ca$h...and there probably aren't too many junkyard '04 GTPs available quite yet either :wink:

Hey, I saw a couple of Olds Auroras in my local yards. One was really sad... the interior was sooo mint.. leather... (fake) wood trim... sexxxy...

 

And the engine bay was sad... everything that was any form of plastic was melted...

 

There was also a Caddy Eldorado... sleek black... and it smelled like something DIED inside it.. animal hair and residue on the black leather seats... ugh.

Which JY was this? I might be interested in making a trip down there if they have anything i could use at a reasonable price (leathers, interior pieces...).

Riverside Auto Salvage. If you can find your way to South I-75, get off at the West Carrollton exit, and go straight. Right after the speed limit becomes 45 MPH, it'll come up on your right. It'll surprise you the first time, and you'll have to slam on your brakes...

I live about 1 mile off of I-75... What exit number is it? Is it a U-pull? How are the prices there?

 

I'm not sure what exit number it is, but I can tell you it's just a couple exits past downtown Dayton. The river will be on your right, and it's the only West Carrollton exit on 75.

 

It's a U-pull yard, the prices are alright. It's not too bad, it's really up to what you think.

Don't you know how easy it is?

 

Step 1: remove engine

step 2: install L sixty seven

step 3: Bypass passkey

Step 4: Enjoy your new L67

 

And then a little of:

 

How can I run 14's?

- Stage 1 heads

- Stage 1 intake

- Step 1 thermostat

- Step 1 spark plugs.

 

How can I run 13's?

- Stage 2 heads

- Stage 2 intake

- Step 2 thermostat

- Step 2 spark plugs.

 

How can I run 12's?

- Stage 3 heads

- Stage 3 intake

- Step 3 thermostat

- Step 3 spark plugs.

- Underdrive pulley

 

:roll:
