04CHASE Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) kind of backwards putting a gen 3 engine in a gen 4 truck . also i would have stayed with the aluminum block your tbss came with . wonder how they change the knock sensors and cam sensors around from gen 4 to 3 ? guess youll have to just get a gen 3 cam sensor as a plug , and put the knock sensors on the block sides somewhere. either way your going to make more power and have more fun . good luck with it.

Lingenfelter has a ton of adapters for this type of swap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbluerock Posted January 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 from your pictures that block wasnt even hot tanked.... and it wasnt decked either.... hell you can still see the gasket witness marks. This LQ9 block was working just fine in a truck that we used and was sent off to get cleaned and they added 4.030-inch bore and 4.00-inch stroke. I really wanted a LSX block, but thought it was overkill and would cost $2000 alone. Also, I don't mind the 150lb weight penalty with the peace of mind of good old fashion GM IRON. I wanted a block that can handle spray and learned from you guys on this forum. It seems like more and more people are going to LQ9 strokers with heavy vehicles. I had to make the BIG decision of a NA motor (11.5.1) with 450-500 at the wheels with the the ability to spray 150 to 300 more or a FI motor (9.5.1 or low compression) and spend atleast 6-9K or more on a TVS2300 and other parts. I decided to go NA with a goal of high 11's or low 12's. I enjoyed a LS3 418 in a TBSS before, however the crank walked - even after being pinned. Ever since then, aluminum scars me in a heavy truck. However, that should NOT discount the LS aluminum blocks - they are amazing. We've seen 370, 402, 403, 416, 418, 427, 440, 454, etc... aluminum blocks holding tons of power with no problems. I just had some bad luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbluerock Posted January 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2010 New 408 is going in now and can be viewed here Here some PICs of the carnage on the stock LS2 with 380+ at the wheels with H/C and all bolt-ons. Piston is missing a chunk of metal on the top of it... Pic - 1 Pic - 2 Pic - 3 Pic - 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
