as far as i know the only cop cars that were stick were a few mustangs back in the late 70's early 80's i believe and they stopped doing that because it was to hard for the cop to handle shifting doing the radio and all that jaz at the same time.

didn't you have a nice thirdgen lined up before? it was an 80's T/A if i remember correctly. what happened to that?

Ian 06-21-2006 12:27 PM

I still have that T/A lined up. the caprice wouldn't be a "project" car, it would be my daily driver.

im pretty sure all years the B4C camaro cop car was made it was available in stick....

NJSPEEDER 06-21-2006 03:43 PM

he is talking about a caprice, not an f-body cop car.
all caprices were automatics. really you can get away with a normal caprice adn jsut junkyard in most of the better stuff if really you want it. that would make the purchase price cheaper, leaving more money for that T/A :)

Ian 06-21-2006 05:29 PM

money for the T/A is not a problem if I sell my jeep to fund the 9C1. and I'd rather not piece the car together, I'd just buy a 9C1 in the first place to avoid all the work :lol:

they were talkin bout mustang cop cars, just thought id mention camaros....

Ian, just make sure that car really has the 5.7 in it. A LOT of town vehicles only came with the L99 4.3L V8, and the two motors look the same. Look for VIN code P in the 8th position to make sure it's got the LT1. Also, it should have a 3.08 rear, and most likely a posi. Look for G80 code in the SPID label on the trunk (you'll also find LT1 or L99 there too).

Man, now I miss my '96 Impala SS. :(

some company used to do T56 swaps on LT1 b-bodies. i dont know if they are still around. they were in DC i think

unstable bob gable 06-23-2006 12:24 AM

Ian 06-23-2006 12:38 AM

unstable bob gable 06-23-2006 12:54 AM
