Transmission Flexplate Spacer (For use of 700R4 TH 350 TH 400) GM part#12563532 Bolts Part#12563533 (looks like GM just reduced the price on this)

FUEL:
You need a rail pressure of 58-62 psi There is an adapter fitting made by Russel Part#640850 that will adapt the GM rail to #6AN fitting. For guys wishing to adapt #6AN to their existing 5/16" return line use part #640860


FUEL PUMP
My truck was a 2.2L Flex fuel truck. I HAVE MADE NO MODIFICATIONS TO THE FUEL SYSTEM! the factory flex fuel pump has supported 491RWHP and The filter has a built in regulator. Same as the Corvette. I used (2) Russell part# 640850 fittings and a chunk of braided stainless line that was all I needed.
Filter/Regulator Setup is GM Part#10299146

OIL PAN
This one is a little bit tough to decide exactly what you should do.
If your willing to notch the GM truck pan from any 4.8 5.3 or 6.0 will fit. It will also hang approx 1.5" below the crossmember.
The LS2 pan is rumored to fit the 4x4 trucks without modification I can't confirm this.

Tuning and ECM calibration.
You can purchace tuning software from a number of locations on the net. The best way for the budget swappers would be the Predator tuner that Jared at Current Performance Wiring offers.

Coil Packs
If you use the round coils from the truck engines and the associated brakets you will not have to relocate the rear 2 coils.
This is a good start for people.. I hope this points a bunch of you in the right direction. I will continue to add to this as I remember things that you might need.

[Zerocool350]

Thanx I really needed this! When we were talking about my setup ther other night, which route do you think I would be better off doing? The regulator way or the fuel pump/regulator?

[Black X]

You can go eaither way. I would prefer to do the corvette setup if it was my truck.

[Zerocool350]

can you think of any other fuel fittings im going to need besides the ones you provided so far?

[Black X]

If you do the corvette filter / Regulator you will need the adapter fittings. and then a peice of line to connect the filter to the rail.

[Zerocool350]

So I will need to the fuel filter, the two fuel rail adaptors, fuel line. What other fittings, do you have the part numbers handy? Roughly about how many feet of line will I need?

[Black X]

you will need the female #6AN fittings for the line. And a chunk of line. I am not sure the exact lenght of the line you will need. It will depend on where you mount the filter.

[Lowsonoma03]

good write up man, this really helps me too! I've also been following your build thread....nice job keep it up!!

[Black X]

thanks

[Rinkrat456]

It helps me also. If a mod is reading this, consider sticky-ing it as the information is Gold.

BlackX, since the previous two LSx swaps were deleted when the site took a shit, could you do a write up for those of us who are just about to start the same swap?

[s10-den]

This is an excellent start. it is not everything you will need but it does cover a big majority of the basics.
In my opinion the harness from current performance is a neccesity yes. It can be modified or done yourself but what he asks is a small price to pay for a plug and play harness.

I was hoping you would chime in

A lot of the members would prolly really appreciate some truck accesory information.

I saw that package, and havent been able to find the part number again. I seem to remember someone saying it was $980 for everything retail, $675 dealer cost if you have a buddy....

[Christobevii3]

I purchased the corvette radiator to put in my core support. What would you recommend for an a/c condensor that i can order and have by wednesday?

[Black X]

I am running the stock condenser.

[s10-den]

Im going to get an after market one that is smaller so I can mount my rad. in the forward position just to clear up a little air way.It is made by Tripac,but thats just me.
