Default New guy from Kalamazoo

Howdy, Brian here from Kalamazoo. Building my 2nd LS powered hot rod, this one a '47 Diamond T one ton pickup with a 6.0/4L60E. My first LS build was my '51 Pontiac wagon, I used a 4.8 and the entire harness from the donor Silverado pickup. This time, I'm using only the engine/trans harness and ECU from the donor, stripping out the unwanted stuff, having the ECU preprogrammed and so on.

So, that's me. On to the tech question...

OK. First two are the '51 Tin Woody with the 4.8/4l60E. The Diamond T truck is shown yesterday before I pulled the front fenders/hood/grill off to start the 6.0 swap. Had a TBI350/4L60E in it as of yesterday. The burgandy convert is our '48 Pontiac, which has an LT1/4L60E, and the last one is our '36 "Fordillac" roadster. No fuel injected motor in this one, it's got a Caddy 472/Turbo400. I'm proud to say you can see a full feature on this one in this months "HOT ROD" magazine. There's also a '59 T'Bird convert getting it's windshield sunken in to the cowl right now, and a '68 Mustang convert, both with 5.0 HO's.

Brian
