ok i want a 6.0 instead of my old warn out 350, what do i need to do?

 

 

LOL!!! I knew that was gonna happen. I haven't seen a lot of gen III/IVs in the 88-98 trucks here, I would try http://forum.ls1truck.com they have a lot more over there.

 

There is a lot over there, but there is even more info over here. I could not have done mine without this site. Everything you need is here, if you search. The first thing you need is another vehicle to get around in, which I see, you have. Then buy EVERYTHING you can think of(write it down), after your research, & go buy it. Don't throw anything away that you take OUT of your truck, until the swap is totally complete. If you have a SPECIFIC question you need answered after you get started, ask away... Thats whats this site is all about.

alot, we put an ls1 in our 98 silverado.

 

There ARE alot of parts & pieces to see this project through. But the first time you drive it around the block, you'll appreciate all your efforts.

 

what is better for my truck, a drive by wire or drive by cable?

 

Personally, I prefered the cable version on my '96. My exsisting throttle cable was the perfect length & it snapped right into the LS1 throttlebody. Done. Your '95 may or may not have the same end on the cable, I don't know. Just another one of those hundreds of little things that need your reasearch. Worst case scenario, you have to buy a new throttle cable, which isn't expensive.

 

cool, thanks i think thats what im going to do is drive by cable... thanks for the info guys

 

ok i cant disside, 5.3 or 6.0 for the swap.. and money is the big part of it

 

6.0... and take plenty of pics and notes, the 350 in my 96 Z71 is gettin pretty tired

 

ill sell you my 6.0 and all my swap parts ive got lined up

 

tempting, but it'll be another year or so before i do it...but out of curiosity, what do you have ?
