Wondering if its better to do this in a certain order, such as, covers first, then oil pan, or vise versa. Or should I just take...

    Thank you for the information. I took your advice and placed an order. Just wondering. Is there anything available for the middle portion of the floor, the panels under and behind the seats?

    Driveshaft length

    Hi Bucket, yes it’s stock height and OE GM shafts. I do plan on maybe a subtle ~2” lift after it’s running and driving. So not for a little while

    Driveshaft length

    I am dropping a 5.3/4L60E into my K5. I am using a fixed motor mount adapter from ICT billet that claims stock location, and an adapter for the transmission from Advance Adapters that goes between the transmission and the transfer case adapter. Overall, the 4L60E will end up 5/8” longer than the...

    4L60E range switch

    I am doing an LS swap in my K5 using an 04 LM7 and 4L60E out of a 2wd donor vehicle (all matching parts) Following the pinout chart on LT1swap I have chased several wires back to the transmission range switch. The remaining wires are, I believe for the PRND cluster indicator, and hot and...

    LS freeze plug issue

    Is permatex #2 the brown aviation sealer? If so i have some. This is iron block, alum head. I got brass plugs as suggested and they are on their way. Its got brass in it now. It does look that there may be an imperfection. Still chipping away at the jb weld. Wondering if a high temp rtv would be...

    208 Milky fluid

    I didnt take pics but if the fluid is milky wouldnt that mean that its emulsified. Or Would the water separate and rest at the bottom after a while ??

    208 Milky fluid

    I noticed milky fluid on the outside of my np208, on the bottom and by the output shaft seal. This truck is new to me. When i bought it i saw the same fluid leak but it was clean, not milky. Today i popped the top cap and checked fluid with an allen wrench and the fluid inside is clean. My...

    LS freeze plug issue

    Sounds good guys. Yes definitely will get a new freeze plug. So you think it was just installed wrong? Or should I try to stake it off somehow

    LS freeze plug issue

    My LM7 i am using for my K5 swap has a freeze plug issue. I pulled the motor this past weekend and it’s on the stand. The donor truck was my semi daily driver. It had the 706 heads which developed a crack, I noticed quickly and replaced with reman 862s. I had a machine shop “give me their...

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    No doubt. Gotta be the most comprehensive one i’ve found yet. I appreciate you guys. I had my 700 all ready to go and i wasnt gonna look back but i can sell it. The 4l60e will have way better manners. I think having to ratchet shift everywhere would get old

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    I have a tuner lined up to get me started but feel i need to do my homework as well. Which hasnt been easy. I expect to get into some basic tuning once i have everything put together. I am ls ignorant but proficient around a carb/distributor setup. This is the next step for me so i appreciate...

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    Thanks for the time for explaining this. So much incorrect info out there or yes/no with little explanation. This is my first ls based build. So you are saying the adapter i am using with the vss at the transmission output shaft will allow the pcm to shift correctly at all ranges

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    Can you dumb this down for me? Are you saying 4 high (and 2 high) will behave like 4 low? Or are you saying 4 low will not shift correctly? I thought with the use of a switch, i could tell the pcm “hey i am in 4 low” and it would use 4 low shift tables?

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    Has anyone not looked at this adapter? It goes between the 4l60e and 208. And the speedo cable stays in its original location in the 208. I will be using the factory pcm. I do not see myself using 4 low but would be nice id everything worked. I absolutely do need 4 high and 2 high. Both my tuner...

    04 LM7 into 87 K5

    No worries. My main question is will the pcm shift the 4l60e correctly if i use a switch to tell it that it’s in low. And second, how is the switch wired. Hopefully someone thats done this can chime in
