Need some help lq4 build I have a 98 camaro I'm pulling the ls1, I have a lq4 that I just bought the tsp 408 stroker kit for, l92 heads, ls3 intake rails and injectors, and pigtails to make injectors work with ls1 harness. My question is what else will I need to make this setup work. Thanks for any info I appreciate it
If this is an ls2/3 block (iirc an Lq4 is NOT a gen IV block.. it's a gen III block. The "6.0" aluminum block motors are the ls2/3 gen IV.. but I've been wrong before..)
Then you need an ls1/2 adapter kit that tsp sells for new placement of the cam position and crank position sensors (I think that's all it does..)
if you are running an ls3 intake and sticking with a cable driven throttle body you need to get a device to attach the cable to. scoggin dickey has em, they're about $50. I was gonna go with the same setup, but.. I flat out can't afford it.
If you are keeping the A4/T56 in the car you will need to swap flexplate/flywheels. If you are going with an 80 you need the 6.0's flexplate.
The 408 needs the ls1 windage tray, pickup tube, and oil pan, but you probably know that already.
obv you need a tune.
You also need the correct crank pulley to line up with ls1 accessories, the truck pulley doesn't, but if you have it rebuilt already you probably know that too.
