Please help!!! I am planning a swap on my 97 Chevy truck that currently has a 5.0 vortech in it. The one thing that I am trying to find info on is the instrument cluster. Has anyone done the swap on the 96-98 vortech truck and can you tell me what modifications were needed to have all the gauges working properly?

 

Read this its a 96 but still will work.

Just reuse the stock 305 senders on the LSx motor.

 

Thank you very much. I thought it would be a pretty easy swap until I got to the gauges. This will be a big help.

 

Thanks again for the document Bo185. That will be very helpful. I should be starting on my project very soon and will be sure to post pics when I get started. My plans are to use a 5.3 HO from an '08 tahoe with the drive by wire.

 

It'll be little different with the Gen IV motor as you will need a TCM for the trans as well, no biggie.
