    Is it possible to delete the 97 computer and still retain cruise control and ABS? Would also like to know for my 97 swap.

    i've heard you can keep ABS that all the abd box would need is a VSS signal but i'm not 100% sure on that.

    the cruise i dont know maybe someone else will chime in

    the cooler line nearest the engine is the output and goes to the bottom of the trans cooler and returns at the fitting in the middle of the case from the top fitting on the radiator.

    yeah i saw that on google and it just seems so backwards to me lol. it seems it would make sense to pump it to the top and let it drain down to the bottom to cool instead of trying to pump it from the bottom to the top and back out. oh well it works so thats the way its going back in there lol.

    Yes, very possible. I have done it many times.
    It can be set up to run just the LSx computer and still take care of all the functions in the truck. Factory gauges, ABS, cruise, etc. with just the one computer.

    #46 repin with 97 black #5
    #49 repin with 97 blue #15
    #50 repin with 97 black #4

    On the 03 harenss I spliced the wires from C2 on the Park/ Neutral switch. Which is white, gray, yellow and black and white wires to were the 97 wires went to the fire wall under the evap. On C1 at the trans (looking at the connector veiw) A to G, B to B, C to C, D to D, E to E, F to F. G to the starter relay.

    got this info from a member in here wayoung.. he did a 4.8 into a 97 burb. im doing something similar and im also at the wiring part of the swap. i already modified the facory harness just haven't had a chance to install it.

    sweet! yeah i read through your entire thread and was taking some notes lol

    on this part though i dont really understand whats going on with that? is that for the old tranny or the 4.8 tranny i'm not sure if it would be the same since i'm swapping the 4l80e in with the engine?

    added some to the ?s with no answers yet


    2. on the power steering pump what do i do about the third line? hydroboost? cap it off?
    3. what do i do with the third plastic fuel line or whatever that is, some sort of vent or evap line or something. do they make a plate to cap this off as well?
    4. what do i need to do about the temp sensor to make it work with my gauges, i saw a few people using adapters to use the 97 sensor i'd like to just keep them all the lq4 sensors if i can to keep it simple later.
    5. the factory oil dip stick was rusted to pieces and broke on me and the piece that slides into the block broke off flush with the block any tips on removing this, would it have a rubber grommet? or an o ring?
    6. does anyone know of someone who notched the frame to use the LS style a/c compressor in its original location and might have some pictures?
