the LQ9 should be in place today. i spent most part of sunday making the truck harness neat and long enough. i had to lengthen the TPS,TB, and the alt wires,also had to make a new alt to power block wire. now instead of 8 guage its now 6 guage.had to put on car injector plugs to the harness. the harness now looks like it was meant to be like it is now instead of a bunch of wires in the middle.also had to enlongate the holes on the AC bracket to line up with the Fbody accesories. had to enlongate them about 1/2 inch. i just now need to get smaller belt.

 

so hopefully tonight ill have pics of the motor sitting in the chassis

got the motor and tranny in. everything wired up. even got my K&N FIPK kit to work with the LS6 intake. just waiting on my white powder coated valve covers and ill post up the pics, then when my fuel rail covers get done being painted ill post pics of that up also. i used a set of LS6 ones to mock up and they seem to work good with the exception of some triming for the throttle linkage bracket so when mine are painted i shouldnt have any issues. with using the car intake its amazing how much space it frees up on top of the motor.

 

oh also i need to fab up my fuel lines/power steering lines and im golden. pics should be up tomorrow. also sending out the PCM to Brian to do the tune for me. while the PCM is out im going ot be installing my 410s.
