Those covers are awesome...built not bought! So many great ideas, so many talented people...love hanging out here.

Not Technically an LS. (It's in the GM family though.)

Juiced06GTO · 05-14-2015, 09:26 PM

I built this truck 5 years ago, daily drove it for two and sold it. I just finally replaced it with a 69 Burb!

**mongocanfly** · 05-15-2015, 12:34 AM

Thanks again AD..I love to fabricate.. if I can make it/whatever I will..problem is I spend way more making something than what I could have bought it for.

is that air intake system a kit?
I was told that Spectre made a ls conversion kit, is that what you used?
I am running a 2003 6.0L with the Edelbrock intake and I am trying to find a kit that will bolt up to it. anyone have any ideas?
Thank you

Yes it's a spectra kit for a 2000 silverado.

do you happen to remember what the parts were? if you had a list that would be great.

I spoke to Spectre and they said they have a brand new LS conversion on the way part number 901235, but he said to wait for a month before pulling it up on the web site. but the impatience man I am I pulled it up on Summit Racing and there was a pic but the pipe looks straight. So if I can't find something soon I guess I will have to wait and see.

Just fit check this 2014 LS3 in my 66 C10 with mild PB drop member. Will be using the MSD Atomic LS EFI setup here to so will simplify the computer system, plus be speed density, wide band and no MAF. I have a new 4L70E as well with stand alone controller.

old yelr · 06-12-2015, 05:20 PM

LS3 or L99? Are you keeping the variable valve timing?

Nice catch

..

It is an L99 out of a 2014 Camaro. I already have everything to convert it to an LS3, per say. Dumping the VVT and AFM, swapping to a small TSP 225/230 cam. As soon as I pull the engine back out will pull the heads, swap cam and lifters, springs and move up to roller rockers. Also setting aside the 6L80E for now and use a 4L70E so I don't have to stick with the OE PCM, no real solution for a stand alone TCM for the 6L80E plus the pain of the output yoke. Will also use FBC.

old yelr · 06-13-2015, 03:46 PM

Sounds like you've got it covered. Do you have a build thread going?

DLW · 06-13-2015, 03:54 PM

No Build thread yet. Debating on whether to start one, I'm horrible at documenting as I go..

Bowtiguy · 06-15-2015, 12:17 AM

Final mock up complete. LC9 w/ a TR6060. now just have to pull it and put on the CTSV pan, notch the frame rail for the NLE power R&P and, put in the 14' Camaro SS clutch and drill a few more holes for mounts.

1moretoy · 06-16-2015, 03:30 PM

Here is mine.

That is a loaded question without more details from you. I suggest checking out lt1swap.com. He has put a ton of info on modifying many different harnesses.
