Hello all,
I've got a '72 Chevelle project that I'm working on, and I also have a '80 Trans Am parts car. My question is: what if any parts from the Trans Am will fit on the Chevelle. I'm especially interested in items such as the springs, swaybar, spindles/brakes. Thanks for any info you guys can provide for me.

Sta-bar is direct bolt-on. Front spindles can be made to work, you need upper BJ's for the T/A and custom made lower BJ's. Some places sell the LBJ for about 40/ea or you can buy LBJ's for T/A and have them turned down to fit the LCA of the Chevelle.

Malibu Performance sold parts for this converson. They were located in Malibu Calif. You can do a lot of this your self like dennis68 said.
