Re: Picking everyones Brains...for LS swap

LS engines are 4.8, 5.3, 5.7, 6.0 and 6.2. No 4.5. I've had both TPIs and LS engines and the LS are just way superior. Since you already have a fuel set up, you're already half way there. I have a couple build threads in my sig that give some details. I've seen your truck on here and can also tell you that using the truck compressor with some lines fabbed up to hook to your existing AC will work since I have a similar set up.

I stand corrected. 4.8 not 4.5!

Get out and drive the truck this summer and have some fun!
It sucks not being able to hear!

LWB trucks rule, if you don't think so measure your SWB!
After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.
