<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Slowpoke @ May 15 2007, 07:04 PM) [snapback]93553[/snapback]</div>just move all exterior accessories, manifolds, etc.. from the 4.8 to the 5.7...What all would be involved if I were to install an ls1 in my 2004 4.8L 5 speed truck?
Do i need to change oil pans or would it just mount right in? Any sites or related posts would be a huge help.
I tried searching but could not find what I was looking for. Is it just a straight forward bolt in and then a program update?

externally they are the same....
swap everything pullies and flywheels, water pumps, pan (windage tray and stick), etc...
the only issue is that the injectors of the ls1 are a higher flow rate than the 4.8/5.3 injectors.
programming would be best to tie it all together.
