getting ready to start my LQ4 6.0 swap

[1991SSP]

You have got a nice clean engine to start with, what year model truck are you dropping it into?

yea its got 80k on it. i put i little elbow into it to clean it up before it goes in. i have an 05 rcsb with a 4.3 that im swapping it into. yea im getting a built trans,3000stall converter, exhaust, intake,and tune to start with so im thinking it should b fun

That is clean, I love it. Now that I have seen yours, I think I will paint my front bracket as well. Great job so far. What paint did you use, I like the flat black. I already paint my heads and block and did not even think to do the brackets.

thanks man.. yea i just used some spray bomb from my local auto parts store it was the FHT engine paint satin black.. i sandblasted it then used a lil etch primer cause the bracket is cast aluminum then sprayed it black

Nice looking engine.

Wiring diagrams are always helpful in swaps. What may help you is the fact that the 6.0 probably came out of a similar vehicle so the wiring should be close to what's already in your truck.
Did you get your PCM flashed to remove the VATS?
