Nice ! Only thing I would of did different would be pressure washing the engine bay with over cleaner and degreaser .... lol I don’t want a guessing game trying to determine if my new motor is leaking or was that from the blown 6 cylinder

Ain't nothing like going to the junkyard and picking what you need, yourself. There is something peaceful about it, relaxing. Nice vid my guy. Crisp picture too!

[@robertironside3166]

NIcely done you have a talent for sure. Love the keep it simple approach and getting the complete harness from the junkyard careful instead of the cut and slash you see so many do. Well done!

I can't believe that the LS harness plugged right into the V6 harness. That is one of the things I was dreading on my swap.

[@oscarjurado8890]

Really good job bud I try to do mine too. Good luck man 👍

[@DwightKShrute]

Wonder if just taking the front end off would make it easier? Like the grill, radiator, fans, and cross bar deal? You could probably just pull motor and tran at the same time and be able to clean it all if ya wanted, and onbthe headers maybe take plastic out of wheel well an take tire off like you do changing spark plugs? . Idk though?

[@obfuscated3090]

It takes little time to pull those front ends. I've done it several times harvesting salvage yard LS. An angle head impact like the Harbor Freight (the small head is why I leave my Milwaukee at home), and a more powerful conventional impact make short work of the job. BTW I always anti-seize body hardware before reinstalling. Pulling the fenders doesn't take long and is well worth it.

Hope that compression fitting holds up on that fuel rail, there aint a whole lot there to hold onto. Id just done a quick connect 6an fitting and ran a short 6an hose. Other than that looks pretty good

[@LSXMILLER]

Quick question I'm installing a 6.0 and 4L80 transmission Do you think it will be OK to Install transmission and motor at 1 time like you did in this video ?

[@frock512]

Did I miss something in the video? I thought you had to match the frame rail mounts with the style suspension in the swapped truck , can I use the frame mounts from the torsion bar 2wd suburban on my 2wd non torsion bar Silverado ?

[@Blando7887]

I wish GM would’ve made a standard cab, standard bed base model Silverdildo with a 6.0 and 4L80 or T56 Super Magnum and heavy duty diff, It would save alot of time and hassle for alot of people

[@oTRICKLINERo]

If you have a 99-02 truck and you get a motor from 03-07 or newer, you will need to get a gas pedal and a harness from that year because it has an electric throttle body whereas a 99-02 truck has a drive by cable style throttle body.
