    Yes. Got a corvette/wix regulator hooked in shortly after leaving the tank. The rail on my motor doesn't have one built in - some didn't in 2008.

    Perhaps Too Much Fuel Pressure?

    I still have, for the most part, a stock 5.3 from a 2008 Tahoe in my 88 K5 Blazer, so we're talking 330 to 350hp at most. I do have some JBA headers that give it a little more, but not much.

    Brief Update: I had my PCM flashed. He confirmed that the rear tire size was off by quite a bit, but he still couldn't fix the transmission stack shifting issue. He put my truck on the dyno and the...

    Wiring Response

    One of these days, I'm going to unwrap my engine harness to map it out and get a good understanding of how it's built, but at this point all I can say is that I started with a full stock LMG wire...

    My exhaust cost me (not including the headers) $325.00 for parts and labor. I bought and supplied the starter pipes with 02 bungs for my JBA headers ($50 something), they recycled my Y pipe and...

    Funny story - well, not really. I had a professional do a pity-scan on my truck's computer today with HP Tuner. The first thing he asks me after the data finished uploading was "did you pay for a...

    Hi,

    Thanks for the information guys. I'm looking forward to checking more into these issues this weekend. I included a picture of the adapter I put in - unfortunately it doesn't have any...

    Had a transmission shop check out my setup today - in their opinion, it's driving pretty good. They did notice that it was shifting gears early, but that at 40+ MPH, it was shifting like it should....

    Next Steps

    I think I'm sort of figuring this issue out - or at least getting more information on it. Several other people have written about similar issues with their 4l60e swap on other forums. Looks like it...

    Buggy 4l60e: Shiftingto Early

    I mentioned in one of my posts that my truck's power band is off, and that at 40 mph and up, when I floor it, it just gradually climbes and doesn't seem very responsive to flooring the accelerator...

    Good looking truck, and, for the most part, your list of pieces sounds OK. I've heard that the fuel pump you're planning on using only puts out around 45 to 48 psi. I've read a few of the Amazon...

    Yep. Your engine space looks clean and minimalist. Not a lot of crap in there like I got. I think you have a bit more space in your engine compartment than I do.

    Thought I would add some other photos for now. If anyone wants specific information about them or the work, hit me up.

  17. Accelerator Pedal

    Here is a shot of the pedal as it is now. As you can see, there is a huge gap between the brake pedal and gas. I designed a very durable steel pedal bracket that attaches to the stock pedal holes -...

    Sort of a brief update:

    I'm now approximately 5 months into this swap (for good or bad). I read something that kept popping up on many people's threads about doing a swap: "It takes time - be...

    Yep. I put 5 quarts in (that's what I found as a recommended amount on a website). Did lots of stick in/out and wipe, but it didn't matter, I guess I was only about half way there.

    Thanks again....
  20. Twas the Fluids

    Thanks! It was the ATF fluid level. I thought I put enough in, but I wasn't even close. At every point I checked it, I never got a very accurate level reading: the truck was warmed up, I ran through...
  21. 4l60e: It shifts but will not engage - Any Suggestions

    Hi,

    The swap is just about done, but for some reason, my transmission will not engage. The column shift arm is working (I can hear all the gears shift), but when I step into the gas, I don't get...

    Just need some clarification - I ended up buying a column shift arm kit (not too much different from my stock linkage) and got it hooked up. It almost seems right, but there is something funny with...

    Does anyone know of a coolant temperature sending unit adapter that will make the 1988 K5 Blazer sending unit fit a 2008 LMG 5.3? I know drilling is one option, but I'm thinking there is...
