Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
Thanks!
That could work. You'd need to block the fuel inlet(s) and you'd need a TPS sensor adapted to your carb. The tune would be a bit more difficult. Enough so, that, if I were using a carb as a TB, I'd probably just go speed density and skip the MAF altogether. |

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
dayj1, I ran across your thread in the middle of receiving ordered parts for the same type build (just a couple nights ago). I love the way you did the MAP on the TB!! My one question is this; what did you do with your Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor? My tune is a speed density closed loop. On newer MAF sensors, the IAT is a part of that component.....based on my research.
Your thread has helped enormously, thank you. I plan on doing my MAP just like you did. Below is a pic of the factory location of my IAT. Help Thanks Mike

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
ItHis truck has a MAF sensor mounted under the Intake so the IAT is mounted in that. On mine I went SD so I added the sensor to the underside of the air cleaner.

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
I tried to find a pic of mine but cant find one. I took an IAT out of a late 90's gm car and put it in a grommet like Jonathan mentioned.

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
Now I remember! How are your truck injectors working in the fuel rail and intake. I did the same thing as you and cut-down the LS1 brackets. Great idea! Mike

Re: Another way to skin the cat; the High Torque 292 LS swap
I’m a self taught gearhead. So, I know the injector bottoms out in the intake, then I slightly brought it back ever so slightly. So the end cap comes off and the injector, then should protrude through the base of the intake? Thanks Mike

Joining the swap community but the simplicity and fabrication is top notch.
Tell us your really a 🚀 scientist and if not your work and detail is worthy of one. Thanks for sharing. My swap may never match up but the bar has been set. Next read is lsnova. Thanks again

Just wanted you to know this thread is a giver. I’ve used it twice in the last week, once plumbing fuel lines and once cutting radiator hoses. Thanks!
