    95' RC Z71 LQ9 project.

    You'll be sorry for not going with the 80e. Hands down best investment, i punish the hell out of it and it shifts like a caddy and firm when your own it. 4l60e should have never been in a truck let alone a car with decent power and tires. I did my lq9 swap because i wanted the 4l80e.

    LQ4 Swap in my 95 Crew Cab

    I used the 454 radiator in my swap. It is way bigger in length and it is also wider. It fits good. I trimmed some of the radiator support to give it more air. If your interested I've got a picture or two of it in my truck

    I don't know, haven't triEd them. But I imagine they would have to be modified mainly for clearance of the front drive shaft

    6.0/4l80e into 97 k1500 questions

    Right on Thanks for letting me know about the headers, i have a 6" lift so hopefully they will work out for me. I used Dirty Dingo Motor mounts and i had the crossmember line up. I used a large "supercooler" radiator from a 454 burb and used the stock radiator hoses from my 2004 donor. Power...

    started polishing my wheels...

    Try finding a local polishing shop. I found one out by where i live and they hooked me up with some badass polishing wheels, one for cutting and the other for fine finish, as well as the compounds to use. I made a long arbor to get into the wheels without the tool hitting the wheel. You can use...
