Re: 71lsx-LWB**Build Thread**

Today I picked up an LS based engine from the local junkyard. It is a 2005 6.0L LQ4 with 150K miles for $700. (Note*2005 and 2006 GM LQ4's engines have stronger and beefier rods than the older years)

Awhile back I bought a custom made LS stand alone wiring harness and ECU for $200.

Looking forward to doing this LSx swap. Going to start cleaning the engine and components in next few days, and figure out what Im going to do for a transmission. Then hopefully tear into this swap.

I havent decided if im going turbo or N/A with this engine. Any Suggestions?
