When the El Camino A-arm bushings were shot after about 250,000 miles I decided to let a pro do that job. That giant spring just scared me to look at. I just whipped out the checkbook for the A-arm replacements, and following alignment. I should have double checked all the work, as they did not tighten up the top of the shock absorber to torque spec, and it allowed the top of the shock to move around. I had to buy new shocks to fix that screw-up.
Jim, I bet there are several "kits" to drop a LS engine right into the Z car. Easy 500 HP.
