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!
Maybe you guys can help me do a little math while I'm thinking out loud here, especially guys who have done transplants to their sixers.
What would I have to add to my shopping list to complete a conversion from a 3800 V6 car to an LS1?
$1,500+ LS1 engine (depending on condition, mods, etc.)
? M6 transmission with gearshift
? Stainless longtube headers
? 2002 Camaro LS1 wiring harness
? LS1 suspension/cradle (add money for new bushings and mounts)
? LS1 radiator
? Interior console upper trim, for manual transmission
? Clutch & brake pedals, clutch master cylinder
? Beer & pizza & Subway money, to bribe people to help me put this biayatch together!
==================================================
????? Grand Total
What else do I need?
What about my axle? Am I OK with my current axle as long as I don't go crazy on my other mods? (I'm thinking only boltons at this point)
I have the aluminum driveshaft (thanks Jay and Bri!)
Brakes should be the same and transferable
What about springs and sway bars?
I have an LS1 exhaust (SLP Dual-Dual) that should be OK to reuse
Don't mean to threadjack, if nothing else it'll mean a free bump for your ad!
