Re: 6.0/4l80 first start

L92 it's a lq4 with cathedral heads, a ls6 cam and valve springs. I used cpps swap kit. It came with the Doug thorley headers. I couldn't use the crossmember out of the kit it was too wide for some reason it stuck out past the frame rails by almost a inch. So I used my 700r4 crossmember from bowtie Overdrives it worked fine on the 4l80 and gave me more room for the exhaust. I'm not sure what mufflers I'm gonna run I have a set of 40 series flowmasters but I think I wanna switch but not sure yet. Still have a bug to work out on the motor my ltfts for bank two are way too high almost on the 23 range and I'm getting a p0174 code for bank 2 lean. I know it's not a vaccum leak so I'm gonna swap the injectors over this weekend to see if it moves. I'm also waiting for my aluminum drive shaft to get made then I can do some donuts.
