What year did GM start producing that type engine?

dhaymaker · 08-28-2012, 11:37 PM

Gen III production started in 1997 as an RPO LS1 for the Corvette.

Sorry for the vague question. I was referring to the one that shuts down the cylinders like Scott has now?

Sorry, I thought you were referring to the Gen III engines, in general. GM actually introduced AFM in the 1981 Cadillacs. There was a "redesign" to the LS engine platform in 2004 and, in 2005, AFM was an option with the 5.7 Vortec engine as well as the LS engine family.

**scotts62** · 08-29-2012, 08:08 PM

Its a crappy design now that i have one by mistake

Strodder · 08-29-2012, 09:00 PM

I wish my 6.0 Truck had that engine. It would give better mileage. Why not keep the stock harness? Or did I miss something?

ill trade ya

Its takes a special harness and computer to run it, will be cheaper and less of a headache to just go the normal route.

Strodder · 08-29-2012, 09:40 PM

Put a carburetor on it.

It's easer to change the motor mounts to make the headers fit. Here's what I did, but not finished with it yet. Just an idea for ya.
