Pretty sure the difference is the EGR 98-99 with, 2000-up without.

 

^ you are correct, half way. 2000-2002 had them in a different location

 

any cheaper alternatives to the throttle body? so far looks like the cheapest is $350

 

That's the cheapest..the cable 90mm's aren't cheap.

 

wow, i think my 1500 budget is shot then...
so far i am in a little over 1000 im gonna say 2500 now... sigh...

 

The way it goes..

 

Professional Products, 96mm, cable operated. Under $250.

 

got a link? isnt that bigger than the ls3 opening?

 

LS3 is 90mm, TB is like .236 in larger. P/Ns 69727 for the 85mm, 69729 for the 96mm, 69733 for the 101mm.

 

i just dont want a tb thats bigger than the intake manifold... i found a great deal on the alt, water pump, tensioner and ac compressor so im getting that stuff tomorrow as well as the oil pan and wiring harness. maybe merv can teach me how to do the wiring harness instead of charging me to do it.

 

btw thanks 93 for the link they will be hearing from me after i get my camshaft and heads, the tb will be one of the last few things i get.

 

went shopping today
1st place $200 oil pan, pickup tube, power steering bracket and complete wiring harness
2nd place $140
a/c lines, drier, compressor, bracket with idlers, alternator, alternator brackets, bolts, tuned ecm, k&n filter, hatch divider, and a waterpump with 160 t-stat
3rd stop new windage tray bc the first place stuck a rod through it.

how did i do today guys on parts/prices?

 

Sounds like when I get to the next stage of my swap I need to get you to find some parts for me on the cheap. LOL

 

im actually buying parts for 2 swaps... lmao for me and a buddy, i find them cheap and add a little finders fee/go get them fee

 

Ya that's cheap..I want an Auto LS F-body Harness & F-body PCM..let me kno what you find..lol..I need it to wire in my S10..

 

mine that i bought is an auto my ecm is tuned for a t56...
the guy i bought the ecm from took the harness out by cutting ALL the connectors off :doh: he told me he would sell the parts thats left for $600 but i dont have a way to load the shell with excellent doors, the dash is cracked one rear seat has no cover, and its a salvage title and i dont have $600... if i did i would have me some ls3 heads. if i would have had another 75 bucks i could have snagged the rack but i didnt.

 

anything i can do to the stock 317 heads to gain a little more out of them? im going to use them till i can afford the ls3 heads/find cheap ones, then swap them and my intake manifold on.

 

Mill them.

 

just found out the oil pan had been broken and repaired at one time...

 

i knocked the cam bearings out today and going back to work when it cools off to install the new ones... which should be a TON of fun with the rotating assembly in! im ordering my camshaft tonight as well. so my bottom end will be completed this week just have to find some bolts for the alt, ps pump, a/c, and put the oil pan in
