Lingenfelter now offers a plug and play electronic signal converter box which allows the 58x/4x timing sensors to work with your 24x/1x ls1 computer. Well worth the cost to avoid the hassle of having to pull the crank and change the reluctor wheel. Here's a link to it on their store: http://www.lingenfelter.com/store/l460065397.html
Link for the box doesn't work...

Anyone have problems with the ls1 valve cover baffles not clearing the l92 rockers? Ours didnt fit we would need an inch or so spacer. And as far as drilling and tapping the block, what size drill bit are you using before running the tap. My tap started to just chew the insert out and would make new threads.
I just placed my LS1 valve covers on my L92 heads and they fit fine but my heads aren't installed yet so the pushrods aren't pushing the rockers up... Are spacers required...
Edit: Looking at pictures the outside of the cover doesn't look physically different, but maybe they are internally
The Lingenfelter box works as advertised. My LS3 / L92 build has the 58X wheel, LS3 spec cam timing gear, and the stock 2001 f-body PCM. Engine fires and idles like normal. The factory gauge cluster works. The only problem with the unit is that it could use a little more slack in the wires for an f-body build, but that is the only gripe. This seems like a good solution if you don't want to pull the crank and swap the reluctor wheel.
Ok so I have a couple Questions. I have a L92 Engine that has the VVT (obviously) but does NOT have the AFM. I am going to be Using the Linginfelter converter Box for the 58x/4x compatibility.
Which Front Cover/cam sensor do I need (early 1x or a later 4x) Since i am using the converter box can I use either one. If i use the early 1x I just dont plug that portion into the box correct? If I use the later 4x Then use the box.
Which Cam Gear do I need? Are they different for the 1x/4x cams.
Are the Later 4x Cams single bolt? Because I have a Cam that I would like to use and It is 3 bolt.

You will have to get the LS2 front cover that puts the cam sensor at the front, because there is no hole for the cam sensor in the back anymore on the newer engines.. You can use your cam sensor from the LS1 though as it is the same for the LS2/LS3.
As for the Cam gear you will need a 4x cam gear. They do come stock from GM with one bolt, but there is also a three bolt 4x version that you can order from GM, here is the part # 12586481.
Why does the thread say 99-02 what's the deal with swapping an L92 into a 98 fbody?

OK I have a 2000 V6 Camaro and just got an 01 LS6 motor. Is there a swap guide for this conversion. I know I will need an F Body Oil Pan, Front Accessories, and TB...but what else is involved? I need all of the info.
Thanks

What about the coils and starter from an L92 can those be uses for the swap, or are the LS1 coils and starter used?

I used my 01 ls1 pcm to run the engine to keep the dash {gauges} working , used a (pantera efi pcm) any pcm that is used to add a extra 1 or 2 injectors will work , hook that to the 2 wires on the cam soloid , add pulse width retards the cam ,i am doing rpm based only , I haven dynoed yet but the truck runs good .
