  1. The truck started acting funny about two months after I installed my blower. I had to rev it to nearly 3000 rpms to shift, now she wants to stay in 2nd and not shift, it was throwing a DTC P0752, Shift Solenoid 'A' stuck on.

     

    I replaced the solenoids, changed fluid, and filter. I'm nearly broke on money right now, lol.

     

    So I need help, what is my problem? Converter? Clutch Packs or whatever? looking to fix this tranny to last me a few more till I buy a FLT Trans

  2. Ok, I'm about 20,000 miles away from hitting 100,000K on the truck, and by that time, I'll have the FLT trans and probably have gone thru the transfer case and front and rear diffs. the motor (5.3L) I love, but I'd love the big cubic inch bragging rights, plus the Radix, whats the most horsepower I can get outta the 6.0L (LQ9) without going into nitrous or meth? I'd be enthralled with high 500 to 600 horsepower. Is this possible or is 500 to about 550 all I'm probably gonna get...

     

     

    Let's just say there is one Ram SRT-10 and a few Lightnings running around here that I'd love to knock off their high horse.

  3. He thinking of about $5,000 for the motor in the truck done. he has that kinda money, but the wife is telling him to quit spending money on that "old truck" and get a new one, he like GMT800 body style, so he doesn't wanna get rid of it ya know.

     

    He has a 07 Z71 Crew Cab, 5.3L LT2 package. Yeah I know the 5.3L is a 325 cubic inch motor, they call it that because it boasts 327 hp, stock claims 295 hp I believe ($3,200 for a mild cam and teflon coated pistons or whatever they are).

     

    His truck is hitting the 140,000 mi mark (he drives this thing all over the country) and he wants more power and low miles again.

     

    The Trans is a brand new FLT level 6, and both diffs and transfer case have been gone thru and rebuilt. (he anal, if it has over 150,000 mi, he says it HAS to be replaced, whatever right?:jerk: ) Last thing he wants is the motor, he wants more power and no forced induction. so I told him the 6.0L should just bolt in and maybe a computer swap. Then he sees the 6.0L at 345hp, and the 6.2L at 403hp. he's in love with the 6.2L idea. To which I told him there's gonna be more involved in that then the 6.0L...

     

    I figured I'd come here, because you guys do some really, really, crazy LS engine swaps.:cheers:

  4. See my friend wants to go nuts on a budget (get away with as much as he can before the wife knows) He's not a engine builder, so a awesome LSX is out. he wants a 6.2L with a TVS2300 in his 07 Classic. but he wants to know if he needs a new trans and rearend and stuff, I'm thinking no, but I'm probably wrong. lol

     

    I know the 4.8, 5.3, & 6.0L are the same in interchangeability, but is the 6.2L?

  5. What mild-wild engine swaps have people been able to do, without diving so deep into it?

     

    Like swapping out a 4.8L for a 6.0L, or a 6.0L for the 6.2L, what are the differences between the 4.8, 5.3, & 6.0L vs. the 6.2L.

     

    I bring this up because a guy at work asked me if you could swap out the 5.3L for the 5.3L LS327 crate motor, I said why not, then he wondered about the 6.2L.

     

     

     

    Has anyone attempted this?
