hello, i found a deal for a 5.3 and 4l60 with 41k miles for 800. it comes with the ecm and the harness, but the harness is cut. the only thing is that is drive by wire and i want a cable throttle. for this price should i just get it and convert to cable? from what i read i think i would need another ecm intake and throttle body, is that right?
thanks sal
Its not a bad deal at $800 thats for sure.
wow thats a damn good deal. I got a 5.3 alone with more miles for 700
yeah i guess i could get it just for the deal. would it be cool to just lay it in the back of my bed, or should i sit it on something?
i would say set it on a pallet and box it upQuote:

what year motor???? 03-07 Classic all you need is another throttle body, the ecm is fine just make sure its tuned for the dbc instead of the dbw
good luck!
Box it up, send me your address, and I'll come take it off your hands. I need a spare.Quote:

do you have 2 old tires w no rims? use that to set the motor on then strap it down, should work fine instead of the rims. if the rims is all you have be careful with the way the motor is set on them. (you could turn the corner and the motor rock hard an run risk of chipping or cracking the oil pan) if the motor is still bolted to the tranny then you should be ok setting it flat in the bed and strapping it down
i forgot to ask if it was still bolted together, but i brought home to used tiresQuote:

ok, i went to pick up my engine and trans today, looks good. i'll try to get a pic soon. the guy had a computer but it doesnt look like the one ive seen on here and on ebay. it says motronic. it looks like this. i dont think this the ecm is it?

my 04 6.0 ecm didnt look like that...an it dont look like my 08 ecm
That's unlike ANY GM module for any GM system I have ever seen. Does it plug into anything on the harness? Then again it might be worth $8769876565.90?
no the harness is cut so i dont know, when i type motronic in on ebay mostly pure bmw ecm's come out, but they dont look like this
lol f it just shop for a harness and ecm an throw that one away!
yup, i think thats what i'm gonna do. i'l just look for dbc harness and computer and swap my tb
