LS Transplant Question
LS Transplant Question So a buddy of mine has his mind set on putting an LS motor in his third gen Camaro. He has access to an 08' 5.3 complete truck motor with computer. The question I have is how can he use it with a 6 speed? As far as I know the computer will flip out if there is no automatic transmission behind it?
What would be the best way to get this to work???
Thanks in advance

with the 08 trucks do they have a tcm and ecm? wasn't sure if trans had its own computer. might be easier to use older truck harness with drive by cable and can tune whatever trans segment you want with it.
PSI Conversion
Speartech
Schwanke Engines
all of the above make the standalone harnesses.

Doing a similar swap in an S-10. Using an LQ-4 and putting a T-56 behind it. Instead of cuting and messing with the harness, I am just ordering one from Current Performance. That way it will be built to what I am using. then just using a 2000+ F-body ECM and programiing it for what I am using. As far as the trans, take off the auto stuff and just swap in any LS type clutch system.

Just let us know engine, size, injector/size, cable or DBW throttle and 16" or 50" harness trunk length.

Could you make one with the speed input so the Disp. on Demand would still work?

You don't need either of those to make it run right. Knock sensor is just a factory band aid that should NEVER be relied on to do anything other then cause a heacache, and the O2's, turn them all off and run the thing in open loop, tuning wise it will be so much easier to get it running right it's not even funny. Unless he's trying to get it thru emmissions as an 08, you won't need any of that on a swap deal.
