Hey all,
Over summer I decided that I will do an LS swap into my Gen4. I have already purchased the LS1, it is complete out of another running sand car. Nothing special, stock LS1 with Painless harness, corvette computer running all sensors, Painless fuse block and relays, OBDII port, Intake with MAF, headers, adaptor plate and clutch. Should be easy for the most part.
This is my list of things to Fab or Change -
Engine mounts to be fabbed
Coolant Lines to be fabbed
Replace Bosch -6 fuel system with Aeromotive -8 (A1000, pre/post filter, regulator and all new -8 fittings/hose)
Weld in -4 bung in coolant purge tank for LS steam port line
Change fans on CBR radiator from 14" (Circa 2004) to new 16" Hi Performance fans
Replace P/S lines due to pump location change and attached resi vs remote resi
Battery option - Add second Odyssee PC925, or remove existing PC925 and install a single Optima full size? Any recommendations on this?
For those of you who have LS swapped a Gen4, what where some of the struggles you encountered?
Thanks in advance!
