As a relatively new enthusiast to the LS1 market, I am always on the look for web sites that can provide detailed installations with photo to make our projects easier. That is how I found “LS1HOWTO.COM” which is just a fantastic web site for enthusiasts looking for detailed how-to instructions for either F-Bodies or C5 corvettes.
The brainchild of founder JMX, LS1howto.com has a comprehensive list of how-to’s, modification reviews, torque specs, and dyno listings.
Some of the how-to items posted on the website are:
- Meziere LS1 Electric Water Pump (F-Body Version)
- F-Body Cam and Valvespring Swap
- BMR Swaybar Install
- Yella Terra Rocker Install
- LS1 to LS6 PCV conversion
- F-body Heads/Cam Swap
- Oil Pump Swap
- LS1 Head Swap
- Front spring/shock swap
- Rear spring/shock swap
- Pro 5.0 Shifter Install
- Throttle Body Swap
- Throttle Body Coolant Bypass
- Painted Brake Calipers
- LID/MAF/K&N
- Valentine One Hardwire
- Intake Manifold Swap
- Hotchkis Strut Tower Brace
I’ve also posted a sample how-to so you can see the detail that JMX has put into his web site. It’s really a great resource.
Also, in the Mod Reviews section, products are rated in performance, quality and value. It’s nice that someone took the time to do this as well as detail the complete installation for future LS1 tinkerers.
Check out the web site for yourself.
