Re: Need advice: LS ENGINE SWAP
Ok im getting excited its comming down to D Day but I need to confirm with all the pros out there first on all I should have ready before I begin. We will be pulling the engine this weekend and I would like to do some clean up on the firewall and front frame once its out I know I may need some tbss manifolds because mine wont clear, I have the DD mounts and my wiring harness should be in some time next week If you guys can tell me what else I should start ordering or have ready it would really help me out ! I will start posting some pics as soon as I get the party started but I cant do it with out your guys help I just basically need to know what else I need so we can keep moving. I got all next week off work so I can get alot of the work done and burn some midnight grease...thanks everyone so far you have all been so awesome !

Re: Need advice: LS ENGINE SWAP
did you get a harness with your engine? if so i have a guy that does a good job with harnesses, as far as the fuel system, the kit was awesome, a lot of extra parts after done with it, but you still have to buy other things...i but some hard lines...just to make it easier and straight cut looking, I'm pretty sure the kit is in my thread somewhere, if not ill find it for you, what you mean by home plate? finally done?

Home plate as in sitting on its final resting spot. I havent bought my harness yet but did email them saying Im ready to order waitng for him to call me tomorrow...was your guy expensive ? were all your connectors labeled ? dont worry about it I will go back on your thread and find that fuel kit was going to look at braided fuel lines anyway but I think your route was more my budget.

the guy i went with charged me 200 for the cut down, labeled all my connectors, and answered every little stupid question i had and then some (some questions not even related to my harness) the guy was awesome, but if you decide to try him out id hurry, he is about to hit with a lot of business, awesome guy, i will be using him again when i do my next swap...and as far as questions go he answers his phone and email but i usually called him, and if he don't answer he calls right back pretty soon, and for my tune i used LT1swap.com, that guy was pretty awesome too...he answered questions too and has fast shipping as far as the braided lines that was way outta my budget until i got to this job at the parts store, i got everything i need to make them there, i may make a line fitting but not sure, but right now i have that option, havnt decided yet tho..
