Another V6 to V8 Swap 2005 Silverado Part 1 4.3 to 5.3 LS

Maybe this is a loaded question but where are you tying the IAC and TPS wires in? Trying to learn for when I go to do my swapping

lt1swap.com has the info

Let me run this by you. I bought a V8 swapped single cab that had a v6 manual. It’s a 2000 model and the security light blinks, lights don’t come on in the dark unless you switch them on, passenger side PW/PL won’t work and I haven’t had any luck with the HVAC controls which are all brand new. Maybe you’ve had a similar situation. I’m gonna go over all my fuses for sure. Bought it as a project truck for my 15 yr old and we’ve made some good progress! Thanks bro

What shifter cable do you use if you run a 4l60e? Cause the 4l60 is not the same right?

[@fuelslut]

confused, what are you trying to swap?

[@pologb9451]

@@fuelslut I did the swap already v6 to v8 2000 Chevy pickup! Just having trouble finding a shifter cable that fits

@@pologb9451 what trans was in the truck prior?

[@pologb9451]

@@fuelslut I’m sure it had the 4l60e 2000 Chevy 4.3l ! I went with the 01 5.3l 4l60e the cables were different so i got the 01 model cable but something’s not lining up connects right on to the tranny and shifter mechanism but when I go to clip the adjuster everything locks can’t even get it out of park! And not much room to adjust any idk if I need a curtain able or if I need to change the shifting mechanism on the steering colum ?

Word of advice…stop moving back and forth between things…you’re making your viewers sea sick.
