What did you pay for the engine/rolling chassi assembly??

I will be starting the same thing very shortly, except in a '92.
Check out Allens harness he offers. It is clean and well done. The electrical will be the biggest issue as the drivetrain fits fine.

you wont belive it, but only 500$ and it drove..the guy would drive it around a field. it has the stering column even

Sounds like a nice swap! It's going to haul ass when you're done.
Here are some pics of the ls1 engine harness we've been selling:

The only difference is the intake on yours, the wiring is setup for a truck manifold when you order one for a 6.0L w/ truck manifold.

Deciding whether or not to cut the frame and box it in, or relocating the a/c compressor.

keep us updated,
