Hey Im new to LS1 truck so I thought Id post a first thread here about my project to get things started:
1993 Chevy K1500
350 SBC
Built 4L60E (Beast Sun shells, 8 Pinion planetaries etc,.)
Rebuilt NP241C Floor Shift
Custom Double cardan driveshaft by Texas Driveshaft Specialties
Currently on 6 Suspension Lift, 3 Body lift 37x13.5R18 Toyo MTs
Heres the plans:
Motor This block started as a brand new short block that was assembled, measured for clearance, balanced, bored to 4.070, honed, deck plated and converted from 24x to 58x Reluctor wheel
Current Status:
- Having a tough time finding a way to swap the LQ9 and keep my original 4L60E while being able to use 4Lo. I am on the fence whether to buy Holleys EFI kit or go a different route but I was hoping anyone can share their knowledge or experience here.
Drive Train Solid Axle Swap; Dana 60 Ford Kingpin & 14 bolt Full Float
Current Status:
- Waiting for last batch of parts to come in to begin assembling the axles. Once built, I will be ordering the leaf springs and front brake system.
- If anyone has suggestions on Brake options (brackets + calipers) for the front Dana 60 Ford let me know, so far all Ive seen are the Ύ ton disc brake conversions. Id rather have the 1 ton stock originals then the Ύ ton GM discs but would like to hear others thoughts and experiences
Ill post pictures and document along the way of the build too
