97 Yukon 2dr 6.0 Swap phase 1

[olblue97]

I've started my parts collecting, I will be watching this thread closely. Which transmission will you be using?

 

[Lost06]

I am curious about your trans also. I am hoping that everything works out and I can pursue an LS conversion too.

Same here, I am thinking about grabbing a 4l80e sometime soon, and do a 411 swap when I put that in, just curious about how to tune it to work without having to buy a tune from someone. I am thinking I would like to get the software to do it myself and learn.

hopefully talk dad into it and will be going and picking up the engine for a 5.3 swap, so i will be following this closly!

Nate 3531 I got my 411 from Lextech He put a starter tune in for my combo. Great to deal with and all the info I needed!
I will be upgrading to a 4L80E in phase 2, Along with some power upgrades.

Sorry I traded the complete 5.7 for a 4L80E for phase II of the project.
