The toughest part to me is the 80 swap. The engine drops in.

Tuning and the build no problem. Have good tuner here in Houston
does the tuning on my turbo-mustang
Yes, I do have the cable throttle body.
So I would just put an LS1 style TB on ? or just keep
my stock 5.3L TB when I swap intakes over ?
What about swapping over to the LS6 intake and just keeping
the 317 heads on the LQ9 ?
Can I make this pass Texas emissions with an LS6 intake swap
and stock GTO cam in an LQ9 ? then add some mild boost, say 8-10psi ?
Again this is my DD, so its gotta drive and pass E-test like stock.
What's up with the 4L80E swap ? I've heard the auto thats in my 5.3
will take a crap in a hurry with any kind of real power thrown at it.
Sorry for all the noob questions. Starting from scratch on learning the
ins and outs of my GenIII Tahoe.
Pushrod Mustangs I know.
Check out my '89 Mustang convertible.
351W - 357ci swap - DIY twin turbos and all the goodies
just finished it up. Did about 80% of the work myself in the garage.
Notice the custom one-off DIS ignition system with LS1 coil packs on valve covers ?
