ls2 swap to 2005 silveradp
would it be fairly simple to swap an ls2 into a 2005 silverado scsb? i currently have a 4.3l v6. and thats just not gonna cut it were i live. my dad drives a twin turbo 2005 z06. my tuck is lowered 3 in front 5 in back and im willing to bring it back up to stock ride height if need be, to get this engine inn. and with the swap i was planning on an flt stage 5, 635e. keep in mind i waould like to first get the engine in and operable with all truck electronics and such. before i start upgrading it. the engine i was thinking of was the ls2 from gm performance parts, with the lq9/ 72 heads. i need alot of help on a general price list for the swap though. im big into ls1 truck. com and have had experience with nelson. so he will brobably be doing the tuning for me.
thanks guys.

welllllllllllllll.. i had a 06 silverado.. it was the RST and it had the 4.8 (284) and it was shortbox regular cab.. five speed<----- thats the key to MOVING that truck.. well it had simple upgrades.. like new gears in the rear end a dope air intake system headers full exhaust etc.. and i tell you what, this **** MOVED.... you can get an array of stuff for that truck within your budget including making it five-speed..
good luck and enjoy
