Engine Swap

Welcome to the site and you are definitely on the right track.

Good job on your research this far, keep up the good work.

Ok. Been reading almost all day.lol And im having a hard time figuring out what needs to be done wiring wise. It seems like with all the options on the OBS and the engine its super confusing. I can splice and cut a harness no problem but I cant figure out (from reading) what I need to make the OBS harness work with the 6.0 engine and its harness and keep things like ABS, Cruise Control etc. Im reading a lot of LS threads and the "OBS to LS swap" thread but I want to do the VORTEC how applicable is this to my planned swap? And is there a thread or site with clear instructions regarding the wiring?

Also Tranny wise. Seems like people are swapping 4l60e or building their 700R4 I think its called. I want to have an auto that will do 11's on boost. But, Im going to get the motor and tranny in and working, then boost after that. What are my best tranny options for an automatic?

Also theres no talk about rear ends, will the rear end in an early 90's OBS be okay until the boost comes?

I've decided its going to be a LQ4 mated to an 4L80e with turbo and supporting mods. Also I purchased the OBS last night at an auction for $1500 check it out. Even drove it home.
