Does anyone know of any reasonable shops or someone who can perform and Lt1 engine swap from a 1997 Camaro z28 into a 1997 Camaro RS? I have a wrecked z28 donor car with 32k miles on it, and I’m looking for a shop or someone who can swap it into my 97 rs vert. TIA Shawn ---

Thanks guys. I spoke to someone at JJ’s earlier, and was told to call back in 2 weeks. Looks like I just have to wait now. Thanks again for your help. Now I just can’t wait to feel that v8 power. :bigthumb: ---
