Default 87 Safari Woody Wagon LS1 T56

We completed an LS1/T56 swap into our woody. The drivetrain came from an unfortunate 2004 GTO that was totaled.
It's now a great cruiser that my 17 year old drives every day.

We used a set of pedals from an 85 camaro and made them work in the 87 pedal frame
We used a G body exhaust kit and modified it to fit the B body. 2.5" duals with Flowmaster 50s and 3" SS tips.
Crossmember was modified to mount the T56
Hydraulic clutch setup from the GTO was used
PRO 5.0 shifter for F body fit well with the bench seat
Motor mount plates with SBC clamshells and drilled new mount holes in frame
Shortened driveshaft
Used cooling system from GTO - rad, fans, pressure tank, steam lines
LS Power Steering pump just had to fab the lines to the old gear.
Fuel system - in line with Corvette filter/reg for 58psi.
