67 Suburban 04 Suburban Engine

[nastety92]

I'm in the process of having the motor from the 2004 Suburban pulled and then it's going to be installed in my 67 GMC Suburban C10. Just wondering if we will be able to reuse the stock exhaust manifolds or if I need to find a set of TBSS, Envoy or Rainer exhaust manifolds?

The 04 Suburban has a 5.3 with 4L60E in it. It's all going in my 67 Sub.

Thanks,
Nick

Will probably mostly depend on the engine mounts you decide to go with.

I have the CPP sheetmetal mounts/perches with the dirty dingo adapters and there seems to be plenty of room to run manifolds or headers. With the older tubular mounts fitment was a major problem.

Thanks for the reply John. I was looking at the Dirty Dingo adapters and I was wondering which mounts to go with. I guess I will look more at the CPP sheet metal mounts/ perches.

Here's mine (during some initial test fitting). The factory manifolds fit easily.

I have a 71 c10 with dirty dingo mounts on the stock 71 mounts i had to use tbss manifolds the stock manifolds wouldnt clear my enginr was a 04 silerado 4.8

[chuychevy82lwb]

I have a 82 square with 5.3 used some ebay adapters (1 inch setback ) and used 2010 camaro long tube headers

[nastety92]

Thanks for the pics and the info guys. I'm hoping I can get the factory manifolds to work if not I'll look for a set of TBSS or similar stock manifolds.

The 2010 Camaro manifolds fit great. I actually used the down pipes and dual cats on my suburban. I also used the sliders from dirty dingo and set my engine almost all the way foreward to allow the stock ls fan and original 1968 shroud to be used

There are some.pitcures in my build link

Just for thought, if there is some interference, you can always notch the frame. It's just an idea.

+1, Also if you are running a DBW pedal, take a look at my pedal adapter bracket: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=651123.

Does anyone have a part number of the actually motor mount that they used with the CPP perches and Dirty Dingo sliders? We were trying to use an older Corvette style mount and it would not fit at all.

Thanks,
Nick

I don't have a part number but you can search by year 1967-72 small block mounts worked fine with my DD sliders. You need to make sure you have small block engine stands not big block or 6 cylinder.

Thank you, I'm using the CPP Perches that I purchased at Summit and Dirty Dingo adapters.

The CPP sliders look like a diffirent mount than 67-72 trucks the trucks use one 7/16 bolt in the center. The CPP mounts look to use the long bolt thru the mount and frame stand

. Sorry I can give you a solid answer on what mount to use.

Thanks for trying anyway. I think these are the correct mounts. I was just talking to Summit Technical assistance online.

That's the correct style. I perfer rubber as it transmitts less vibration. If this suburban is a long distance cruiser the energy suspension mounts could add some drivline vibration.

I would be fine going with rubber. I'm just trying to find something local that might be in stock today. Any idea what other type of mount might be like this in rubber?

I would try a 66 Chevelle with a small block
