    Smile Hello To Everyone Noob Inforum

    Hello,

    I am a noob here well I have some questions. I am planning on swapping out my 5.3 engine on my 2003 suburban to a 6.0 ls2. My current engine has over 150k miles on it and is asking to be put to sleep, its knocking and well i decided to make the move. My question will it directly drop in into the suburban with out mods, better yet what all do i need to make the swap.

    I have the tools to remove.

    Looking for a used ls2

    what else...

    kindly advise,
    sub2003

    Welcome to the forum.

    You might save this area for your introduction and post your mechanical question in the related forum. Probably get more traffic and help that way.

    Welcome

    I believe it will be a drop in. Of course a ECU with the motor would help alot though. Otherwise you will need a tune for sure.

    Welcome to the site! Good luck with the swap. +1 on what Moze (Damn Yankee) said...post up specific questions in the correct section. The search function is pretty useful also as I'm fairly certain this question had been asked numerous times in the past. Lots of info already on here but if you can't find it, ask away.
