the only thing i’m worried about is the brake line situation…everythign else should be easy to do and just bolt in and out. i’m really concerned if the stock LS1 rubber line coming from the LS1 rear end T block will screw into that hardline fittin on my camaro. cuz i dont wanna get the new rear in, just to find out the lines dont fit! lol another guy told me just to keep my stock T block and screw in the ls1 hardlines on the rear. i dont really wanna do that ---
