Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
OK guys, harness is on! It took some time but I was able to route everything so even with the engine covers off all you can really see is the white connector for the coils. There is about 4 feet of harness off the back of the passenger side cylinder head so the ECU will definately go in the cab out of sight! The blaster called today to let me know my tank brackets are blasted and powder coated semi gloss black and ready to be picked up. I actually made a good connection with him and got them done for $60 total. He told me he would have done the chassis and control arms for $300. I wish I had of known this before I painted and reassembled the whole thing. O well. I have to remember this is just a decent driver...

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
I originally had wait4me do the harness but I was VERY unhappy with it and sold it. I used the guys at lt1conversion.com for the harness. It is absolutely perfect and I couldnt be happier with it. I need to get the coolant temp sensor adapter now but I hear the aftermarket ones from Autometer are kinda poor quality. I just dont feel so good about drilling into my cylinder head for the temp sensor. Getting close now!

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
I'm working on it. Hard to do though when you are trying to keep it fairly stock looking. That and Dennis' attention to detail is amazing.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
My thoughts exactly. A decent driver. LMAO I am glad I don't live anywhere near you cuz I would have had my cab off the frame too!!! I just fixed a few cab imperfections last weekend now ready for floor paint. Looks good. I am gonna give lt1swap.com a call.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
It is lt1conversion.com Thanks for pointing that out. Should have the tank brackets and the tanks themselves mounted today as well as the high psi. fuel tank switching valve. I was thinking of using that black braided fuel line from summit to try to keep the bling to a minimum. Have any of you guys used that stuff or have any ideas other than stainless braided AN line. I like the look of the AN line but want to keep it looking as close to a stock install as possible minus the airbox, etc...

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
i really like your front end, and strongly thinking of switching over to it. can you give me some info?
Trucks coming along nice. Why would you drill the head for a coolant temp. just take the bung out the back on the passanger side head.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
You have to drill the head to use the 86 ect sensor. I am just going to use an adapter for it. I got the tanks, switching valve, filter, etc all mounted. Just need to plumb it now. Getting closer!!!

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
I absolutely love it. This harness is freakin awesome. You can hardly see it when you're looking right at the thing in person. Very nice piece for sure! Now I just need some S&P headers.

Re: The 6.0 Silverado Build
Sorry man. Has been a little slower at work so the extra cash has slowed as well. If you get someone to buy the welder I have in the for sale section I will finish this darn thing!
