Thanks Edouard,
I think it will be fun to do something other than a restoration. I had originally planned to put the driveline from the Roadmaster into a '65 Skylark two door sedan that I have , but really , really wanted a Sport Wagon for that. Now I have found one , let the good times roll. lol
It does have the 5.7 and 4L60E , but it Is not the Corvette engine. There are some differences between the engines used in the Corvette and the engines used in the other models. One would think it was merely a PCM programing difference, but there is something different because you can't simply flash the PCM and reprogram it with the Corvette specs. A good friend that used to be a GM tech , tried that on his Caprice with the LT1. It didn't work and as I recall, he got an error message along with the car wouldn't run at all. He had told me the specifics , but the old memory banks aren't recalling them. I just remember that he had to flash the PCM again, re-enter the program for the Caprice, before it would run.
I think this will make a fantastic road car with more then enough power and really good mileage to boot. lol
