Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
hope this works... In case it is hard to see, the lettering on the 6-pin plug that goes into the switching valve is, from left to right on the diagram, F E D C B A. F is not used.
This drawing uses a generic on/off/on type switch. But for the factory switch, the wiring is: A - Black (Ground) B - Gray (Right Pump 12v) C - Tan/Black (12V in to switch, to power pumps) D - Tan (Left Pump 12v)

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred"
Hi Bob;
I know this was an old post, but do you remember if the primer you used was a special engine / high temp primer, or if it was just regular metal primer?? I'm asking because I want to paint my engine but I can't find any high temp primer in the stores and I don't know if it is necessary or not ---- although I would think that it would be important to use if it was available. Thanks!! Gordon

I actually made these adapters for Bob/Fred. I had some fall off scrap pieces that I made these for a few board members. I could make more if I had the material. C360 or C-3600 free machining brass hex stock. Also, he used the oem style gauges electronic from an 88 up burb I believe. |

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
Glock, do you remember where the speed signal goes? The speedo has 3 inputs if I remember correct. I am putting a LQ9 in a military blazer and I am going to use the 91 cluster I have but I am unsure which pin to put the wire from the computer to. Is that all I need to do once I figure it out for the speedo to work? I know I have to repin my plug to match the 91 and I am switchind to a 91 tcase with the vss.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
Occasionally some is on epay. I haven't checked in a while. To answer your question, maybe, not sure. We haven't had to make any parts that leaves the fall off behind.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
Hi guys,
I love this tread!!! It's got me all wired up about doing the same with a small twist; maximum mileage! My '86 swb has a 400sbc/700r4/2.74 combo right now. With gas prices here in Europe around $ 8,- per gallon I want a combo I can drive as fuel efficient as possible. (I Loved the power and mileage on my old '98 LS1 Z28) I don't push my cars hard, so I'm still thinking either a 4.8 or 5.3/4L60e combo. I guess I'll go the Fred route,altough maybe a lower rearend? Like 3.08 or 3.23 or so with max. mileage in mind. What's Fred's average mileage since the LS build? I only read about the mileage during the build. If there was a place I could get all the parts needed for the swap at once.... That would be it for me since there are no 5.3 pullout combo's for sale here in Europe. Oridering every part bit for bit would really kill the deal for me....

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
Man this is a long thread. Took me a whole day of work to read this. I love my job!!! I like a few others on here have Fred's Twin and have planned pretty much the same thing only Im going with a whole different suspension setup. I talked to nate and hes in the process of setting up a coil over front end and I think im going to go with a 4-link rear but after seing that ladder bar setup that could be interesting too. I figure a 5.3 should be plenty as my 05 suburban had one and it pulled my 16ft trailer cross country several times no issues. Lighter truck ought to be better. I appreciate all the great info this thread gives and cant wait to see what you have planned next. Here is a pic of my truck.

Re: Glock's new project: "Fred" w/ 5.3L LS swap info
Glock are you out there?
This is a wonderfull thread, I have read and re-read several times and catch something new each time. I have an '84 LWB completely restored but still has the 305/700R4 combo in it. I have finally assembled all the parts and a 5.3/4L60E to start this project. I do still need to send the harnes and computer in for mod to standalone. I have one question right now with probably alot more to follow in the future. You made an extension to frame mount on the pass side to support the new motor mount location and mentioned you would make a template. I will be doing the samething to mine but can't find the template, but I'm guessing from the pictures that you added about 2-3 inchs to the mount? |
