@travisblack41724 күн бұрын
So the problem lies with the fact that the inline 6 stuff is quite different than any of the v8’s. Doing a v8 swap in a trailblazer regardless of year is a pretty big pain in the ass. You’ll have to pick which PCM version you’re going to go with, and then how to pin it out from there. P01 is 01-02, P59 is 03-04, E40 is 05-06, E38 is 07+. You can see where this gets challenging.

@@СергейПискунов-р9й I’m pretty sure the 2002 specifically (and the other years with the inline 6) use a totally different PCM unit than all the v6 and v8 trucks. The only way I’d assume you’d make this thing run again and seem close to normal is to basically make a 2003 LM4 setup and have it be happy with the 2002 body control module. I’m not familiar with the intricacies of the factory body modules and systems because I never v8 swap late model vehicles, I only steal the power trains I want and throw the rest away.

Thanks to your video, I finally figured out what motor I have. I bought an engine that was sold as an LS2 out of a TBSS. Stupidly, I only started my research after I bought it. (Sort of a drunk purchase.) I realized pretty quickly that it had a weird mix of parts. Mine has no variable cam and the DOD was deleted. It still has 243 heads. The part I was confused about was the valve reliefs on the pistons and the lack of a casting number on the back of the block. Now I realize it’s an LFA that was made to look like an LS2. I don’t care too much since I’ll be changing the cam and springs anyway, and the -0.2 points of compression don’t bother me since I’ll be using a turbo. I don’t think too many people know about this 6.0.

If it doesn’t have VVT or AFM then it is technically a Gmt360 LS2. Gm was mixing and matching parts like pistons without changing the RPO codes.

@@travisblack417 Thanks for the info. If it was untouched I would just accept it as is, but I can tell the heads were off recently, as was the valley cover and front cover ... I'll take off the starter to see if it looks like there was one installed before this one. I guess the casting number on the crank might help too, 'cause I saw on Summit's info page that they should have different crank castings. The engine also came with a harness from a '09 2500 HD 6.0, so it's a bunch of mix/match by all appearances.
