Dad's 95 TBI to LSx swap
My dad and mom have a 95 C1500 ext cab 2wd with almost 170K on it. It gets poor mpg's and doesn't have good power. Truck is 100% rust free and sharp as could be.
Today he pulled the trigger on a 5.3/4L60E out of a 2005 Silverado. 27K miles on it, complete MAF to tail shaft, harness PCM, gas pedal etc..
I have been doing a lot of milling about on the web, looking for info on an LSx swap into a 95 Silverado.
From what I know and have found, the 95 is set up for the most part, intigrating the harness should be fairly straight forward.
Does anyone know of info on the drive by wire part? Any scematics or pin outs would be very helpful.
Look for photo's of the truck soon, We'll be picking up the LSx goodness some time next week. It gets to live in my garage till we are ready to swap. I might sleep beside it.

on the 88-98 body trucks. What have you seen used for motor mount adapters? can I use these with no issues? http://store.summitracing.com/partde...?part=TRD-4572
From the looks of those who have documented, it looks like I can use this style instead of a 1" off set, to put the trans in the stock location to use the old driveshaft and what not.
