who's done it, ls2 swap
#3
I knew i heard my ears burning lol
alright the first thing you need is a 24x reluctor wheel LS2 to start from, longblocks are great but your changing a bunch of stuff so you need to read below
You need:
*LS7 Valley Cover
*LS2 Timing Gear (Half moon Timing mark not the 4 piece one)
*LS2 Timing Cover (With Sensor)
*Racetronix Cam Position Sensor Harness
*Racetronix Knock Sensor Harness
thats off the top of my head but here are a few helpful tips.
*Use your Factor Knock Sensors with the Racetronix harness and screw the sensors into the side of the block on either side (i'll look for Pics)
*Cam Positions Sensor Harness is plenty Long Enough to route down the factor harness around the altenator and PS pump
I'll add more later but remember the LS2 LOVES to rev i had my shift points at 6500 and it kept wanting to pull

hey zzebes, So all in all you happy with swap or wish you would have just built the 5.3 you had (assume you started with a 5.3) ? You have any pictures too of swap ? I thought I decided to go ahead a build my 5.3 so I order some heads and cam, but now some guy I talked to awhile ago about an ls2 is hitting me up again. He accepted my offer I gave him awhile ago on a brand new crate ls2 Now I got to decide all over again
