Welcome from Alaska.

Looks like a great project.  It ought to be a screamer w/ the LS- and 4L80E combo!  5.3, 6.0, or 6.2 liter?  The LS- swap seems to be more and more popular.  There are several members on here that are working on or have completed a similar swap including the site owner, Chris Lucas aka Capt. Kaos.

Keep us posted.

Haven't really kept up with it I buy and trade so much. I pulled the motor and trans out of my 98 Camaro and decided to put it into this truck but changing a few things on the motor from when it was in the Camaro.

Nice EFI setup, I'm jealous. Is that tip going on an F-18? Haha looks cool. Tom cruise is missing his after burners. LOL Post a vid of the sound when you get her goin.

Post by: COPRHED on April 29, 2014, 02:14:12 pm

     I am really interested in knowing how hard/easy the EFI system is to put on, and how it runs after you get it going.
