1974 Chevrolet Corvette LS3 Engine Swap Description

1974 LS3 Swapped Corvette!!!!

Clean tittle currently registered in California. The car was built frame off.

The car has a LS3 and 6-speed TR6060 from a 2014 Camaro SS that had 30k miles. The car was built to handle over 1,000 HP. Very fast and a fun to drive. I hate to sell it but we recently bought some property and I need the cash to put towards the payment. A lot of time, hard work, and money has gone into this car to get it to where it is at today.

The parts list does not include any of the fiberglassing or labor that went into the LS Swap...
