LS2 APS w/ lg turbos
My t56 days are numbers now, finally ordered up the new 4l80 today. Few weeks and should be enjoying two step launches with the py3400! Can't wait. Too bad though would have been nice to order some of those upgraded turbos but money only stretches so far.
Get that thing running buddy!
The LS2 made prior to sept 2005 has a 24x reluctor wheel like the LS1. Some 2006 models still had a 24x. The sensor on the crank(behind the starter) will be black if its a 24x and grey if its a 58x. An ECM made for a 24x will not work with a 58x, the crank position sensor will be confused. Make sure you have the right one. FYI the knock sensors are in a different place also, the LS1 had them below the intake and the LS2 has them one on each side close to the oil pan in the block, the connections/wires are different.
If you have big power plans the LS2 can use more cylinder heads since its a bigger bore 4.000"vs. 3.905". The L92 heads will work on it.

So you have the right reluctor wheel on the crank? Not sure if that matters. You can knock that plug on the back of the block into it maybe thats what happened. The one behind the pilot bearing. Thats why you have to use puller on pilot not the toilet paper trick.
Still would think oil would pour out the back and mabye all over your clutch if you did have that plug behind pilot go into block.
but i have not confirmed this issuse yet guys so do worry about it to much ill take pics for you
but this has been known to happen to other poeple so its something to think about when your checking over any engine

Thought Barnat would already have his up and running by now.
Mine is so far still being a trooper but still at 7.5psi. Took another noobie for ride today. He has 94 TA six speed stock and his has problem and is running terrible he has never got to see what it can do since it was pooched from day he bought it but he thought it was fast since he never had a fast car before.
I had some real fun taking him out to deserted industrial part of town and running it to redline in second and close in third. Lucky had some long streets out that end of town and definitely need to get my new c5 z06 brakes on the car the current upgraded ls1 really dont' seem to handle even the current power level very well.
I am sure I tripled his heartrate from the look on his face ,his comments and just generally the way he screamed like a girl when put that hammer down. Suprisingly the old nittos hooked up not too bad today, it was reasonably hot out hot out. They did good in third and not bad in second but did roll into it.
No 6000 clutch drops tempting as that might have been. My trans and clutch is sold to buddy so have to be nice to them.
That 4l80 is being built and should hopefully show in week or two. So will be putting my car down for that shortly. At least know that when get it back up should like driving it a lot more still love stalled up autos.
Too bad I can't track and dyno my car this season.I guess do it in spring .Track closes 27th and going up there 20th or 27th with my 91 talon race car to run it for its maiden voyage.
Well Tom really hoping you get your ride figured out and up and running.
but its just my luck
ill take some measurments and pics to show you all what im talking about and i hope it all works out in the end. (mean1) ill be coming for you soon LOL
and let me know asap. i am about to drop the motor in. thanks
just like we call it the trust bearing was kill by the trans pushing on the plug in the crank
we pushed the plug in deeper and pulled the pan to find the wrost thing you can see in a new engine metal in the pan
im hoping i can save it with just a new bearing and a cleaning
the pan came out pretty easy. my boy and i had the trans and the pan out in less than 3 hours was very happy about that. did not pull the k-menber at all thank god LOL
in the pics you can see the plug that the trans was pushing on THANK GOD it never start. have not look at the crank yet but i hoping for the best right now more info to come this weekend hoping to get it back together by sunday cross your fingers for me LOL
