Possible lead on 6.2 so now I have LOTS of questions
 
So I may have a good lead on 2013 yukon xl and I believe it has a 6.2 in it. Looking to put in a '69 c10 which currently has a sbc 350.

My question is what all would I need to pull besides eng, trans, engine wire harness? I'm sure there are some modules that I'll need but have NO clue as to which ones and where there at. Any help is greatly appreciated.

I would try to get the fuel pump out of the tank or maybe even the complete tank with harness's. O2 sensors and exhaust manifolds. Good luck on picking up engine. That will be a sweet drive train:metal:

Does this have VVT or DOD and what is involved with programing these options out???

Stock manifolds don't fit most frames unmodified, so unless you want to flip them for turbo in the future, I wouldn't bother.

Aside from the engine, trans; take the ECM, BCM if applicable (you may not need it depending on the features your' running, but taking it now saves having to find one later if you do require it). Take the DBW pedal, all its wiring, the TAC (if applicable). You can take the fusebox if you want to reuse it, some do, others choose not to because an aftermarket one is a tad cleaner.

Take the driveshaft yolk, or the whole shaft if you want. Depending on what tranny you used to have, you may need the other yolk (i.e. 4l80e can't use a 700r4 yolk)



As for the AFM/DOD; it requires tuning AND hard-parts changes. Non-AFM/DOD cars use different cam layout, pcv gets plugged etc. You can see the parts kits

There is tuning associated with this also.

Texas speeds has the complete kits or these are just GM parts so if you have a good relationship with your stealer then they can usually get you the parts cheaper...
I am currently working on a '10 6.2 from a Denali... Feel free to PM me if you have questions as I have done pretty much all the conversions we are discussing here...

You can "tune" out the Active Fuel Managment (DOD, displacement on demand). If you plan on going high HP with a high lift CAM, then the hard parts should be removed. If you are planning on just making a good driver, I would leave it in and then make adjustments to the tune that will only let it drop to the 4 cylinder mode when in 5th or 6th gear. Just my .02.

That's what I want to have my ECM tuned like. Leave it but only at highway speeds.
It is amazing what things you can do with these motors.

Glad to hear you folks understand how to do this!
