Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

Does that engine cover come complete like that? As far as covering the entire top of the motor? Never seen this one, heard of the vortec max though.

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

other than blue that is how it comes. you gotta get one from the dealer

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

The side covers are on all LQ9s, ss silverado, vortec max, escalade, and maybe denali?

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

The motor I just bought is a 2002 vin U from a yukon 2500. it has the full covers. maybe they mislabeled it and I got lucky and scored an lq9?

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

Chris you have a LQ4 according to the info I have. VIN U is the LQ4 and VIN N is the LQ9

Th LQ9 also came in the Escalade 02-06.

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

there are 5 variations that I can remember
Vortec Max (comes red) top cover, and side covers
Vortec 6000 top cover, with the same side covers
Vortec 5300 which if i recall is the square top cover only off the early trucks
and the Escalade cover which i think has the same side covers as the top 2.

i can dig out the part numbers if you guys need them

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

our work truck is a 04 2500 with a lq4 in it and it doesnt have the covers. just the top one

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

nice looking engines

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

Awsome, thanks guys. I think this is a nice looking cover. $50 is the cost on it, just checked with a buddy at the dealer. Better than having a custom made.

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

Here is something a little different.

85burb-I love that look!! Mine will look similar only I will be keeping the MPI. 4150 TB on Super Vivtor EFI hopefully on top of 408ci.(keeping fingers and toes crossed)

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

Thanks. I like the look too. But i love the milage. I get 14 mpg with mostly in town in a 4x4 burb with 33s and 410 gears. That is with a good amount of beatings threw out the drive.

Re: Show your LS Swap engine bay
 

That will be for the center cover only. The 2 side covers have additional cost.
