Yeah, it's not quite that easy. You have to swap the computer and harness as well if you want it to run. You're talking about replacing an L06 with an LT1.

The transmissions are different also.

so it can be done you just have to switch out EVERYTHING from the 96 to 93

You should not have to change the rear axle. If the 93 has a 4L60E, then you don't have to change the transmissions. If it has a 700R4, you will need to change them. If you change transmissions, you may have to change the driveshaft too, but I'm not positive because I don't remember if there is a significant difference in transmission lengths.

You could put a Kia engine in there if you really wanted to. It doesn't mean it's plug and play.

ok this confuses me u wann put the lt1 from a 96 on the 93 then put the 96 frame (wich is teh same thing) and then the body???

thats what i was thinking in the beginning to take out the LT1 from the 96 and put it in the 93 and vise versa. BUT wouldnt it be easier if i just swap the frame from the 96 with all the drivetrain to the 93's body?
