flamingbig10 · 08-05-2010, 11:28 PM

now time to find a 4l80 my plan is to find one without a converter if so I'll add one with around a 1500 stall and a mild cam, but the parts I do have is a brand 87 fuel tank and sender, with hoses and fuel filler tube, and I plan getting the harness lengthened so I can sill keep the wires hidden and mount the computer behind the glove box

flamingbig10 · 08-12-2010, 08:22 PM

yes it a 6.0 but need study a little more to make sure its the lq9, and it had a half inch with the c-notch and stubby bump stops

flamingbig10 · 08-12-2010, 10:37 PM

I starting disconnecting the wiring harness, but didn't get very far, it was hot outside

jgh64pkup · 08-12-2010, 11:48 PM

its probably a lq4

flamingbig10 · 08-12-2010, 11:50 PM

I look it up its a lq9 what I ordered

3r!c84 · 08-13-2010, 12:02 AM

drop it off at mmy house if its not the lq9 (:

flamingbig10 · 08-13-2010, 09:13 AM

only if it was 4.8, when I got the motor it had two things wrong with it, was the oil cap was missing and the Idler pulley was broken so I emailed the seller I they said "I apologize for that and I will make it right. I will send a cap and replacement idler pulley"

menace121978 · 08-13-2010, 09:31 AM

glad to see you got it and they are making it right. to double check if its a lq9 pull the plugs out and the pistons should be flat top. the lq4's are dished.

Driveway Dreams · 08-13-2010, 11:26 AM

Man, its been a while since I have gotten on here. Glad to see you got the LS. That is gonna be one sweet truck very soon. Way to go Aaron!

flamingbig10 · 08-13-2010, 10:46 PM
