Welcome to the Michigan FBody Association website.
The Michigan FBody Association is a centralized website for FBody enthusiasts to discuss what's going on in the Michigan area. MiFbody.com was created to allow for an easy one-stop place to find out what's going on in Michigan as far as FBody events, to find out what clubs are available in your immediate area, and for an easy place to post classifieds for items you want to sell! Our goal was to create a more close-knit community of FBody enthusiasts in the state of Michigan, and to bring Camaro and Firebird enthusiasts alike together for some amazing FBody events!
The most important thing to know about the Michigan FBody Association is that we are NOT a club! The Michigan FBody Association is open to everyone, and is a community. Thus, we will have get togethers, casual cruises, events, and such like that, but this is not an exclusive club and it's 100% free to join this site! So what are you waiting for? Register now!
If you have any problems with the registration process or your account login, please contact us!
the idea of putting a 3.8 in and selling is the best idea IMO. sell it for 3 or 4k. buy an lt1 car for 3 or 4k. there are way too many details and issues to deal with.
do this.. not worth doing the swap.. especially putting a LT1 in a car newer then 97.. you would be way better off selling this one as a roller or putting the motor back in and selling it complete and buying a diff car.

98 z28, m6, monster clutch, eibach pro kit, custom twin turbo setup, 317 heads, z06 valve springs, arp rod bolts, 512rwhp at 10lbs. cobra eater
Another person who did a swap here. Sell it and buy what you want, came in way over the $$$ and time budget. You will get nickel and dimmed to death.
And why in gods name would you try and put an lt1 in anything newer than 97. That is an electrical cluster-**** waiting to happen. I beg you, dont do it. Theres enough wires and crap to deal with just switching v6 to v8 same year. Not to mention you be swapping a cluster at a bare minimum as the 98+ cars clusters work off the data bus of the PCM, there is no individual wire for each gauge, 1 wire runs all the data to the cluster. Not possible on the lt1 PCM.
