what up guys heres my story:
im putting together a 1984 15th anv. Trana Am for my little brother. body wise the car is in mint condition. it originally had a 305 and i recently purchased a LS1 out of a 98 trans am with a 4L60E tranny. i have searched up on this swap for an ls1 to this gen f-body and my main concern is if the alternator and a/c compressor will clear the chassis/steering box. if anyone knows of someone who has done it or might have some pics on the web. please let me know. any info you know will be a great help!! thanks alot!

Also known as street rod performance sells a kit that moves the A/C compressor and alt to a different location for that swap.
Also, I want to say Hawk's makes a tubular k member for that swap that also helps give clearence for both those parts.
I didn't have any clearence issues on the alt, but I don't know about the AC though. I ditched mine.
