New 87 SWB Chevy 5.3 swap questions
Just aquired a new to me 87 SWB 350FI 700R4 A/C. Found a 01 tahoe for sale wrecked in front and the plan is in motion for a engine and tranny swap since the previous owner of my 87 said the 700r4 was rebuilt and seems not to be, and the motor needs valve seals. Wondering if there is a thread for a 5.3 swap or anything special I should know about transplanting this combo besides the basics.

The module for the 700r is a must. Good luck and not to mention the Computer for the 01 as well. Lots of wires and sensors. Yuk.....

Re: New 87 SWB Chevy 5.3 swap questions
if you are buying the tahoe as a complete truck why not just use the entire wiring harness?

A lot of guys go to LS1tech.com They say there is a section for transplant stuff. Since you are getting the whole tahoe then you should have everything you need. You will just need to have the computer redone to eliminate alot of the stuff you won't need.
