    Heater blower motor battery drain

    Ding, Ding, Ding.... Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. When I did the LS swap I hooked the brown alternater wire to battery power thinking it would power the gauge. Just like Jgonick said, it was back feeding the HVAC fuse. Causing the fan circuit to be hot all the time. I cut that wire didan amp...

    Heater blower motor battery drain

    Scott, I beleive if memory is correct I put the new fan in before the LS swap and had a dead battery in the morning. I was thinking like you that maybe it's because of the LS swap. Orange wire to HVAC fuse is hot in key off position. So obviously the HVAC fuse is also hot all the time. In all my...

    Heater blower motor battery drain

    My 77 Cheyenne K30 is a non A/C truck that means NO relay. I lucked out last winter and scored a 1977 GM truck factory service manual with all wiring schematics (from 76) on eBay. The wiring schematics don't show a relay on non A/C truck.

    Heater blower motor battery drain

    Question for Squarebody wiring gurus. My 77 Cheyenne has a 7 amp battery drain. Dead battery in the morning... I tracked it down to the fan blower motor. I installed new blower motor (original bearing was howling) and a fan resistor. Still 7amp draw with key off. Tried a different ignition...

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    The ICT mounts put the Trans/ Tcase where I wouldn't have to drill anymore holes in frame. It all just worked out better. I measured the Center line of the old transmission output shaft height and duplicated my setup.

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Built a NV4500 Mount and NP208 is installed. I ended up having to use the ICT motor mounts. So the back of 6 liter is exactly where the back of the 454 was.

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    I ended up using the 2001 Suburban 2500 Hi-pressure hose. Fits great at the pump.. Then I cut off the metric end that goes into the Hydroboost unit. Re-flared it to a 45° flare and boom done.

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Lunch Debreifing; I went back to the adjustable engine mounts. Moved the engine 2" forward. NV4500 shifter is now easily out of the way of the T-case shifter assembly. Tranny Mount is also almost exactly over the factory crossmember. Now I gotta figure out an elevation. See pic. Transfer case is...

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    I'm only worried about the NV4500 shifter position and making sure the stock 6.0 fan fits in the original 4 core fan shroud. I'm considering adjustable engine mounts and sliding the engine forward about 1-1/2" to 2" ??

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Several test fits. Went with the ICT mounts but it seams like the engine is really close to the fire wall? Has anybody else done this LQ4 NV4500 swap? I guess I'll mock up the tranny to see where it's gonna land...

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Picked up a working NP208 out of a 85 Silverado K20. $100 also got the Whole shifter, bezel & wiring to light up on the dash. I just need to have my brother do a rebuild and change out the 27 spline for a 32 spline.

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Adaptation of the 205 to the NV4500 is a shitshow. Way to much $$ and brain damage. This old K30 squarebody is my Home Depot weekend cruiser. I don't think I'll ever beat on a 208 or 241 enough to break it. And I've found 208 & 241's with pass side drops and already 32 spline inputs for between...

    6.0 NV4500 K30 swap

    Last summer was the put it on the correct frame and this winter its 6.0/ NV4500 swap on my 77 Cheyenne K30 dually. I can't stand the 454 and SM465, can't get the truck out of the way of traffic. BTW 104K mile 454 carb to pan for sale cheap. I picked up a 90k mile 6.0 out of a 01 2500 suburban...
