Hi guys! My name is Cale and I am new to the lt1 world....
I am swapping an lt1 into my Porsche 944. I got the car last october, but have just started the swap recently. I picked up an lt1 with less than 100 miles on rebuild, painless wiring harness, and ecu. I've had to get a lot of custom parts for the swap, I'll provide a list if anyone is interested. I've also got some suspension work into it as well, I'm all about the corners, just needed a little bit more power!
I've got most of it done but have a few questions about some thing, I was hoping you guys could shed some light and help me out.
This is where I am as of this last weekend
This is my car when I picked it up...look at all that dust! Last year registered...2005
After a bath...
Do I need the VSS? My car has a cable driven speedo...
What do I do with the trans connector? My car has a 5mt
What is this connector? It is by the driver side fuel rail.
What is this? Do I need it?
What is this for? On driver side intake mani
And this? On driver side head
Also! Do I need the air pump connection and relay? What is it for?
The wiring harness also had a fuel pump relay already on it, do I use that one instead of the factory porsche one and just hook up the wire that says "fuel pump" to the pump? Also the harness has a "fuel pump test" wire...what is that for and what do I do with it?
There's more I'm probably forgetting and I'll have to ask as I go along.
Thanks for the help! :thumbsup:
