    Dads '66 Suburban

    Truck was my dads, he bought it from a collector at Pate Swap meet. Its pretty rough both mechanically and cosmetically but is solid and reliable. It came with a 283 power glide that was tired. We put a '01? 5.3/4l60 in it and converted it to square body (I think) power steering and power...
  2. LS Engine Angle?

    I posted this in the Jeep section and got a response but looking for more input. I have the engine tilted 4 degrees up relative to the frame or level ground. It looks perfect to me in the frame/body. Wondering if anyone has any reason why it's ok or needs to be higher or lower. Any ls swap...

  7. AC for LS wiring questions

    I'm feeling stupid working on AC for my LS swap. 1) Does a 3-wire AC transducer replace high and low pressure switches? I've gone over the harness several times and I don't have anything for high and low switches. The instructions reference high and low switches but I'm 99.9% sure they don't...

    Wiring LS for standalone

    Question for the brain trust. Working on wiring the LS (GEN IV) in my FJ80. Should probably make a thread for it :homer: but.... How conservative are the OE ratings for the wiring systems on an LS engine? The reason I ask is because I need to find a power distribution block / fuse block to...

  15. Another LS engine thread - refresh must-do's while it's out?

    If that helps you trust my experience, I just fired another engine I "put together" (IE cam, springs and AFM delete), with no issues. Also built the harness twice for that one. Buggy was supposed to get a gen3 then the owner changed his mind so I did a 24x to 58x conversion.

    LS cylinder head temp switch

    I'm currently swapping an LS3 into a 1976 Cadillac. The Cadillac has a temp warning light, I'm trying to find a temperature switch to turn the light on that uses 12mmx1.5 threads. I'm wondering if anyone knows of anything. Thanks in advance!
