thats cool you must be up in barstow area. what issues did u run into installing the 5.3?

No actually I'm in Rancho Cucamonga. I didn't really run into any major problems just some wiring headaches. I would suggest a pre made harness from nelson because it really would have helped me. I cut up the stock harness and it is not as clean as I would like to be. For the 6.0 i will have a pre-made harness with just the essentials.

oh ok. i found a guy in south gate that said he can do a harness for 450. i might go with that. my original harness was designed for dbw. so is my intake. so im converting to dbc because i dont have the module or the pedal assembly. im still kind of confused on one thing with this swap however. how does my transmission work? ive read so much and the info regarding the transmission during this swap is very vague. i have a 96 2d with 4wd and a 4l60e. all ive found is that i need a spacer and a flat flex plate. i have the original off the engine and i plan on using a yank 300 stall. is there a plug on the ls harness that will power the trans or how does that work? if your ever in the long beach area i could always use a hand! lol
