The battery has been relocated to the trunk, away from the heat, as well as away from the non-lockable hood! The high pressure electric fuel pump under the rear end supplies flow to the TBI injection system. It is a Bosch pump from a Mercedes.

Also I have a steering column from an 86 Chevy S-10 pickup, with tilt, high beam, wipers, and cruise switches. Only modification was cutting off and rewelding the correct rag joint mount to the end of the column shaft.

Other than the electronics, the engine was a direct fit. The transmission required that I have the driveshaft shortened a bit. The only real electronic hurdle was bypassing the VATS PASSkey II system built into the ECM from the Camaro. After talking at length with several dealerships only to get responses ranging from "What is PASSkey?" (ignorant, but at least honest) to "I can't tell you that, it's a security issue" (pompous-assed arrogance used to hide ignorance) someone from USENET told me exactly how to bypass it. This page shows the solution.
