1989 Pontiac Firebird

This was my first large scale project that I took on. The Firebird was originally equipped with a V6 and a T5. I bought a wrecked 1996 Buick Roadmaster and swapped the entire drivetrain (LT1, 4l60e) into the Firebird.

It was a fun project and I learned a lot about cars from it. Definetly some challenging aspects, especially getting the electrical sorted out.

Tracing various wiring

Created custom fuel lines with AN fittings

Working on the wiring. This involved creating a custom fuse/relay panel and converting the LT1 harness for standalone use. LT1wiring.com flashed the ECU for the new application.

Nearly finished engine bay
