I thought I was doing good just to get the pictures on here, I don't know how to make them smaller

**farmtruc** · 08-13-2003 11:05 AM

LOL

can you make them a tad bigger, i can't see them, jk, np on the size, they'll just have to deal with it.

So what are you going to do with the 4.8 engine and stuff?

The swap looks good, the best thing about it is it'll look like the same engine and no one will know, (except for those ls1 ppl who see the alum. block)

congrats and let us know how that thing runs (when you get the shaft and idle done)

later,

I think I got the pic size fixed, I will probably sell the 4.8 and 5 speed they both have just under 31K miles.

how much for the setup then, i know a guy who is looking at putting that setup in a s10?

**6gear** · 08-13-2003 11:38 AM

I would want $2000 for everything including the wiring harness and computer that would now fit that engine.

If you don't mind what is your zip code? I wanted to check shipping cost.

thanks,

btw, looks like you got a bunch of toys, i see two bikes in the background, all you need now is a lift in the garage, hhehe

later,

allen

Ya I have a few toys but I am an old geeser too, one of the bikes in the background is my sons GSXR 1000, I have a Hayabusa and a 2002 Goldwing not in the pics. my zip is 72561

I set my cam timing back to straight up, that took care of my ses light and the low idle problem, I have an ABS and a parking light on and I think that is due to a conflict with the speedo showing 30 mph when I know I am doing 75 and the ABS system. I am going to have to get my gears in before long because it doesn't pull to good in 6th with the 3.42's. It runs fine and I can tell a difference in torque over the 4.8 but I think I need some pcm tuning probably with the T/A pcm, I am using the truck pcm now and I am not sure if it is giving the LS1 what it needs, I will be talking to Allen some more about that. My new aluminum shaft weighed 14#'s and the old one weighed 21#'s.

congrats on the install. You may notice a slight decrease in torque below 2K, but oh well, you're over 2K in no time.

I'm sure the truck pcm is holding back the truck, TM is a big killer of performance, as soon as it thinks you're having fun it will pull lots of power from the truck.

Man, pretty swap over! Wondering if you got that truck tuned yet? Any more pics?
